AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Description of the fascinating taxidermy trophy of the wild boar Sus scrofa, original from the eighties, mounted on a shaped solid wood shield
This imposing bust presents significant dimensions, with a height of 70 centimeters, a width of 50 centimeters, and a depth of 50 centimeters, paired with a real and substantial weight of 11.73 kilograms, making it a display piece with a strong visual impact, ideal for enriching rustic salons, taverns, professional studies, or high-level natural-history collections
The specimen is in its completely original condition from the era, preserved exactly as it was born in the eighties, with no modern restoration or maintenance intervention, to guarantee the maximum historical integrity of the object
The fur stands out for its thick and robust coat, characterized by the characteristic brown and grayish hues that preserve the authentic charm of the period piece
The proud gaze and expression of the animal capture the essence of wildlife
A detail of great collectible value is represented by the lower tusks—the incisors—that protrude in a pronounced and realistic way, giving character to the taxidermy mount
As visible from the images, the object shows genuine and historic signs of time consistent with its age and with the putties and resins used at the end of the twentieth century, including natural cracks on the inner surface of the mouth and palate that do not affect the structural solidity but increase its collectible value and vintage charm
An authentic vintage taxidermy work, suitable for enthusiasts seeking a unique and history-rich decorative piece
Careful shipping with reinforced packaging tailored to the delicate nature, volume, and substantial weight of the object
