TAXIDERMY, DIORAMAS SERVICES & REPLICAS.

we are a family run company
now based in Reading, UK.

WILD NATURE STUDIO is a family run company, consisting of three generations of taxidermists. Our company has been offering taxidermy and dioramas services for over 70 years in: Argentina, South Africa, the US, Spain and more recently in Reading, UK (from where we are now based).

Our client base, which includes public and private museums, philanthropists, collectors and companies, is testimony to the quality of service we provide.

Extensive expertise in areas such as anatomy, sculpture, painting, and tanning, allow our team to provide a wide range of services including taxidermy, dioramas, cases and domes, restoration and replicas.

We use a highly professional methodology including an extensive research of every species, a great care in preparing and tanning, and an extremely detailed f inish. Some of our services include mamal, bird, fish, reptile, and amphibian mounts.

I started working with our father when I was 15 years old. It was at this age I developed an interest in the ancient art of preparing, stuffing and mounting of animal skins. Later, I specialised my skills in bringing taxidermy, restoration and dioramas services to collectors and museums.

TAXIDERMIST

I grew up surrounded by a family of taxidermists. As a child I developed a love of nature and wildlife which has continued in my work today as a dioramas and taxidermist assistant in our family company.
