Taxidermy Display Case

We received this photo from one of our customers, she had a beautiful Owl she wanted to display & protect. We supplied the black base and display cover, made to her sizes, she just entered the sizes into our website at www.acrylicdisplaycases.co.uk and ordered straightaway.

Taxidermy specimens  are supplied either cased, or uncased.
Cased Taxidermy generally means they are supplied sealed inside a display case, or picture frame, and usually have other items inside, like grass or rocks, to set the piece in its natural surroundings to create a 'scene'. Obviously these will not need one of our display cases. They are already protected, sealed within their own environment. The only disadvantages being you cannot inspect them so easily for insect damage and also you wont be able to see them as well as if they were uncased.
Uncased Taxidermy is supplied as is, with no surroundings, the owl in this photo was supplied with its perch and sturdy wooden base. These allow you to inspect them very closely, to appreciate the natural beauty, you can even touch and feel them. This means you can have a greater appreciation of the taxidermy animal/bird. The disadvantages of this are of course many.

• If people aren't careful touching then physical damage will occur. 
• Over time the natural oils on people's skin will damage the animal/bird. 
• Dust will also land on it and the colours will appear faded. 
• Removing the dust can also cause physical damage.
• The feathers or fur can be damaged by sunlight/UV light.
• Moisture can also cause damage to the animal/bird.
• Cigarette Smoke/Air Fresheners/ Hairspray/ Furniture Polish can all damage it.
• Insects/moths could lay eggs in the feathers/fur and the larvae will attack your taxidermy animal/bird, you can read all about that here in more detail.

Every single problem listed above can be avoided by using one of our acrylic display cases, they block over 90% of UV light, 100% of dust and moisture and 100% of aerosol spray. They also deter inquisitive house guests from touching without your permission. The covers are easily removed for easily gaining access to your taxidermy piece.
