A handsome, taxidermied male Reeve's pheasant (Syrmaticus reevesii), mounted on a branch and housed in a large glass case.

The elegant Reeve's pheasant is native to China, but populations have become established across Europe and the UK. The male has a 'very long black-and-white tail and is strikingly patterned', appearing 'crafted out of black-edged gold and white porcelain scales' (Cornell Lab of Ornithology). This specimen has been prepared so that the long tail is on full display.

Taxidermied pheasant mounted on a branch attached to a wooden base and housed in a glass case (60 x 37 x 100 cm), excellent condition.
