An unusual and highly characterful taxidermy piece, this “Stoat-Asus” features a preserved stoat mounted in an aggressive, animated pose, uniquely combined with outstretched wings to create a striking hybrid curiosity.

The stoat is positioned mid-snarl, teeth bared, giving the piece a strong sense of movement and personality.

Mounted on a naturalistic branch with moss detailing and set upon a rustic wood base, the composition blends traditional taxidermy techniques with imaginative, almost folkloric creativity.

The addition of wings transforms the piece into a surreal, cabinet-of-curiosities style object, reminiscent of Victorian-era whimsy and later curiosity art forms.

This is very much a statement piece—ideal for collectors of the unusual, macabre, or bespoke taxidermy, and perfectly suited to interiors that embrace gothic, eclectic, or curiosity-led styling.

Pieces like this are conversation starters and are rarely duplicated in exactly the same form.

Care instructions:
Keep in a dry, stable environment away from direct sunlight, moisture, and heat sources. Avoid handling the specimen unnecessarily. Dust gently with a soft brush or low-pressure air to maintain its condition and preserve the integrity of both fur and feathers.
