Description:

The vintage leather hippo and elephant sculptures are exquisite works of craftsmanship that showcase the beauty and artistry of taxidermy. These pieces were created in the late 19th or early 20th century, during a time when taxidermy was a popular art form.

The hippopotamus is depicted with its mouth open wide, revealing its formidable teeth. Its realistic pose and detailed features capture the essence of this majestic animal. The elephant is standing tall, with its trunk raised. Its intricate details, including its wrinkled skin and expressive eyes, make it a lifelike representation of this iconic creature.

The use of leather as the primary material for these sculptures adds a unique texture and depth. The leather has a rich, dark brown color that complements the natural tones of the animals' skin. The craftsmanship is evident in the meticulous stitching and detailing that bring these animals to life.
