Description

Height: 42cm

Width: 16cm

A taxidermy magpie mounted in a naturalistic standing pose on a turned pedestal stand.

The specimen displays the characteristic black and white plumage, with contrasting feather tones across the body and wings, and an elongated tail creating a balanced silhouette.

The bird is positioned atop a decorative stand with a shaped column and circular base, finished in a worn green tone that adds contrast and visual interest.

The combination of specimen and stand gives the piece a more formal presentation compared to traditional base mounts.

Magpies are a recognisable subject within taxidermy, often collected for their striking monochrome colouring and distinctive form.

A well-presented and decorative piece, suitable for collectors or display.
