AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

White-naped Crane - Grus vipio

Elegant life-size specimen of a White-naped Crane (Grus vipio), prepared in a classic upright and vigilant posture. The specimen exhibits plumage in excellent condition, characterized by the strong contrast between the dark anthracite-gray of the chest and front neck, and the clear white stripe that runs vertically down the nape.

The wings feature soft light gray feathers tending toward whitish that cascade naturally toward the back of the body. The head is adorned by the distinctive vivid red area around the eye, paired with a long, robust dark beak.

The long slender legs show a dark tone, and on the right leg there is a visible orange identification ring. The bird is firmly mounted to an irregular naturalistic artificial base that simulates a dark, rocky ground, finished at the bottom with a red protective edge.

Conditions: Premium taxidermy, thick plumage and well-preserved coloration.
Support: Solid rustic artificial base, proportioned to the height and slender conformation of the animal.

The buyer is responsible for verifying the import authorization of an item, as well as the duties and taxes due at the time of import. Therefore, one should check for any specific import rules applicable to bringing an object into one’s country. The regulations may concern import bans and licenses, as well as rules on customs duties, VAT, excise duties, and clearance costs.
