All auctions / Ethnographical / Bat Taxidermy full body mount - Cynopterus sphinx - 23 cm...
Cynopterus sphinx — Skeleton bat Suspended upside down, in the posture that is natural to it, it observes. The skeleton of Cynopterus sphinx, native to Indonesia, reveals what classical taxidermy always conceals: the intimate structure of the living, the finesse of bones, the elegant mechanics of a wing drawn for the night. A cabinet of curiosities in itself. Each skeleton has been prepared by hand with care and precision — meticulous work that requires patience and know-how, and whose result testifies to genuine artisanal mastery. Each specimen being unique, the size and appearance may slightly vary from one sample to another — the quality and care brought to each creation remain unchanged. note: a final spacer has been added to the back of the skeleton for better protection during transport. Presented under a glass display case measuring 23x14x14 cm, black wooden base, brass rods. Professional finish. Not CITES. Careful and secure shipping.
