Description

A beautifully preserved taxidermy otter, presented in a glazed wooden case with a painted backdrop and simulated terrain. The otter is posed alert and upright, its stance full of character and lifelike energy. Set against a hand-painted outdoor scene, the display features rocky ground, artificial grasses, and foliage that evoke the otter’s natural riverside habitat. The craftsmanship is evident in the detailed rendering of the fur, expressive facial features, and careful composition within the case. Such pieces were traditionally created for educational or decorative purposes, often found in Victorian collections or natural history displays.

Here at Sinclair's Antiques and Interiors we do our utmost best to ensure all our items are described and photographed to show any flaws or damage such as shrinkage splits, losses or lifts to veneer, repairs or marks. However, giving the age and the fact that each piece will have had years of polishing to create its own individual character we cannot describe every minor mark separately and therefore recommend you either visit our warehouse or request extra photographs.
