Mustela putorius (Albino Ferret) – In excellent condition – No reserve. In a softly lit study or a vintage-styled library, this beautifully preserved ferret immediately draws the eye. Its alert posture and creamy pale coat create a wonderfully characterful presence, making it a striking natural-history accent for any curated interior. Natural-history context The ferret, Mustela putorius, belongs to the mustelid family and has long been associated with human environments due to its agility, intelligence, and expressive behaviour. Historically valued in Europe for pest control and admired for its sleek, flexible build, mustelids have appeared in natural-history collections since the 19th century as symbols of both wilderness and human coexistence.
