Your journey with Velvet & Bone Taxidermy
We guide you through each stage, ensuring your peace of mind and satisfaction. Our commitment to keeping you informed is paramount.
Step 1: Initial consultation and documentation
From the moment you contact us, we prioritize understanding your needs. We always confirm that your animal was harvested legally with proper documentation and licensing, ensuring compliance with all regulations. This crucial first step sets the foundation for a smooth and ethical process.
Step 2: Vision and design details
Next, we dive into the details of your vision for the trophy. How would you like it mounted? What position do you prefer? Whether it's on a pedestal, a floor base, or a wall mount, we discuss all options to capture the essence of your trophy perfectly.
Step 3: Agreement and deposit
Once your vision is clear, we accept you as a client after a contract has been signed and a 50 percent deposit is made. This secures your project and allows us to begin the preliminary preparations.
Step 4: Final payment and process initiation
The remainder of the amount will be charged at the point of starting the trophy, and you will be notified accordingly. Once paid in full, the meticulous taxidermy process begins.
Step 5: Progress updates and pickup
We believe in keeping you connected to your project. You will be notified periodically on the progress of your mount. Once it is complete and ready for pickup, we will inform you to arrange collection of your preserved masterpiece.
Transparent pricing for every project
We offer exact pricing on each specific item, mount, full mount, habitat base, pedestal, or even custom taxidermy. Contact us for a detailed quote tailored to your unique request.
