This is a vintage French taxidermy Roe deer head on a wooden mount bought from a traditional French brocante market. This taxidermy deer head is mounted and is sold as a project for refurbishment rather than a pristine piece. This is because the inner lining appears not to be stuffed enough resulting in some movement (see video). This is priced to reflect this. It would make a great gift for a taxidermy collector keen on renovation pieces or for the start of a collection, equally it would make a quirky hat stand in a hallway. Pros - it is in tact, nice mount, complete, ready to display. If just mounting on a wall it is fine but lots of handling would make it more unstable. It is secure on the mount. It is very cheap! (in good condition it would be £89.99) Cons - It has not been stuffed enough so it wobbly, see video, excessive handling may make it less stable.
