A striking large Victorian taxidermy puffer fish, beautifully preserved and mounted with glass eyes, showcasing the dramatic spines and distinctive inflated form that make these specimens so desirable.

With its wonderfully expressive face, oversized proportions and incredible natural texture, this is exactly the kind of piece that becomes the focal point of a cabinet of curiosities, coastal interior or natural history collection.

Victorian taxidermy fish of this scale are increasingly difficult to source, particularly examples retaining such character and visual impact.

An unusual decorative specimen that looks equally at home amongst antiques, curiosities and museum-inspired displays.

A fantastic conversation piece and a true collector’s item.

Care Instructions:
Display away from direct sunlight, excessive humidity and heat sources. Dust gently using a soft brush or air blower to protect the delicate spines and fins.
