About the Item

Very pretty and decorative early 20th century French articulated life-size mannequin's arm in dark brown painted and plastered heavy solid wood. To lay or hang and use for extraordinary decoration purpose. I have this thing with hands, especially if they are as elegant as this one. The wood of the under arm and hand are plastered with a thin layer of plaster and then painted. The hand comes off with an ingenious wooden screw system. This female arm probably was part of a female torso on a display stand. Somehow this arm looks very special and unusual on its own, like a piece of art. Or maybe it would be very happy in an antique arm or hand collection

1920s Czech Taxidermy Cow Tur Domácí Bos Taurus Hind Leg Bone Classroom Study
Located in Haarlem, NL
Very interesting early 20th Century Czech made taxidermy cow "Tur Domácí Bos Taurus" hind leg for classroom study, probably used at a University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. The leg is at least a hundred years old, you can see by the way it is fixed together (the curly iron thread) and the surface ware of the real bones, it is smooth and yellowish. The iron and wood holder however is probably aded very recently (my guess is in the 80s 90s). Tur Domácí Bos Taurus (which is Czech and Latin for domestic bovine, or domestic cow) is an even-toed ungulate from the genus Bos of the bovine family...
