Add a rare and authentic piece of vintage wildlife art to your collection with this genuine French taxidermy pine marten (Martes martes). Freestanding on a rustic wooden branch mount, this specimen is a wonderful example of mid-20th century craftsmanship, sourced from a traditional French brocante market.
Its coat has naturally lightened over time, and as with all vintage taxidermy, there is some light wear to the ears and a gentle musty scent that fades with airing. These features add to its authentic age and unique character.
Ideal for taxidermy collectors, nature enthusiasts, or eclectic interiors, this charming piece makes a striking display in a study, gallery wall, or rustic home.
