This mount was no doubt another piece liquidated from the extensive holdings of the Hohenzollern royal family. The mount is of course executed in European style and rates about excellent exhibiting a pleasant patina overall, the tips nicely polished and the bark a dark brown tone. An attractive silver Russian Imperial crest is set onto the brow of the skull. Naturally Kaiser Wilhelm would entertain all sorts of dignitaries on lavish hunts in the late 1800s / early 1900s, including his cousin Tsar Nicholas. The span of the rack is about 25'' with a height of about 27''. It remains securely affixed to its hardwood base, which may be a later-made excellent quality base in the Germanic style of what we would expect for the original featuring carved pine branch and cone motifs, the edges with gold paint accenting. The base rates near excellent showing a few light dings and scuffs, a wall-mounting bracket on the back shows an American manufacturers mark and the base measures about 27 1/2'' high by 14 1/2'' wide. This is a very fine ''Russo-German'' mount with interesting historical implications. [Extra Shipping Will Apply, Pick-up Recommended] (13C11108-131A) [Tom Devers Collection] (3000/5000)
