A Pair of Vintage Taxidermy Fish Head Mounted on Wooden Bases

The second specimen is mounted at an angle on a circular, dark-stained wooden plinth. Both items feature open-mouthed poses revealing rows of small, sharp teeth and are fitted with inset glass eyes. The taxidermy displays natural skin textures and scale patterns. No maker marks or signatures are visible on the specimens or the bases.
