Taxidermy Antique Peacock

This is a magnificent antique taxidermy peacock, believed to date to the early 20th century, presented on a naturalistic perch with an oval wooden wall mount. A striking specimen showcasing the extraordinary beauty of one of nature’s most admired birds.

Long associated with beauty, immortality and grandeur, the peacock has captivated collectors and artists for centuries. Its mesmerising feathers, with iridescent sapphire blues, emerald greens and bronze tones, is adorned with the distinctive eye markings that have made its feathers so enduringly admired.

At Goat & Chair Antiques we believe historic specimens such as this deserve to be cherished as surviving pieces of a bygone era. Preserving these remarkable examples of natural history allows their beauty, craftsmanship and cultural significance to be appreciated for generations to come.

In good antique condition overall, with the feathers appearing to be largely intact. Some age-related wear and delicacy may be present, consistent with its age.

A wonderful statement piece for a country house, traditional library or eclectic interior, bringing history, character and a touch of natural grandeur to any setting.
