STOATS
STOATS,
late Victorian, a detailed and well-presented John Cooper and Sons taxidermy diorama of two stoats, with one of the stoats killing a rabbit, mounted in a glazed bow-fronted case,
30 x 51cm
The firm of Coopers flourished during the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century, and is renowned for its mounting of fish trophies. Only rarely did the firm stuff mammals or birds, so these perfectly mounted stoats are unusual survivals. Like most of Coopers' fish, they are presented in a glazed bow-fronted case.
Estimated at £200 - £400
