AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vintage French Roe Deer Taxidermy Shoulder Mount with Exceptional Abnormal Antlers (Capreolus capreolus)
Offered here is a unique, vintage shoulder mount of a European Roe Deer buck (*Capreolus capreolus*), sourced directly from France.
This specimen is highly unusual and deeply captivating for collectors due to its spectacular, anomalous antler development (often highly sought after in French hunting and taxidermy traditions as a rare curiosity).
Instead of the standard roe deer three-point crown, this buck displays elongated, sleek beams with a highly distinct front tine branching forward, beautifully mimicking the elegant structure of exotic cervid species. The antlers also feature a rich, heavily beaded pearling structure ("perlaj") localized at the bases right above the skull, leading into deep dark-brown longitudinal grooves and polished, sharp tips.
The taxidermy work is clean and well-preserved. The fur retains its natural, rich chestnut-brown tones with characteristic facial lighter shadings, meticulously gathered around the rosettes without visible adhesives. The head has an expressive, lifelike gaze with perfectly set glass eyes, mounted securely on a classic teardrop-shaped polished solid wooden shield plaque.
Dimensions :
* **Total Height (Plaque to Antler Tip):** 63 cm
* **Depth (Wall Protrusion to Nose Tip): 38 cm
**Length:** : 27.5 cm
Good vintage condition with minimal age-related wear.
The fur is thick and structurally sound, and the colors remain vibrant. There is a tiny, superficial lighter spot on the very tip of the nose (truffle), typical for pieces of this era, which does not detract from its strong overall display value.
Please carefully review the provided photographs with the measuring tape for an exact assessment of dimensions and condition.
An exceptional piece for natural history collectors, curiosity cabinets, or as a centerpiece for rustic and hunting-themed interior design.
The product will be professionally packed and sent safely to your address by local post.
The pictures of the product are made with the highest possible resolution, precisely to capture possible small defects (small scratches, stains, defect), the pictures are part of the product description.
