My trophy’s just hit the US and are at the taxidermy. I’m going to do a shoulder mount in the kudu but was thinking it would be cool do have something made for my wife with the rest. Thinking hand bag, jacket, etc. Any ideas?
Both, some have come from vendors at DSC/SCI, some from a woman who worked for Hermes and now has her own shop, Rhino boots from a custom boot maker.Just curios who makes all these pieces do you get them done in the states or Africa ?
I’d rather you post pictures specifically the bison robe because I want one . I’d also like to see the cigar holders as I’m a fan myself and that sounds awesome .Both, some have come from vendors at DSC/SCI, some from a woman who worked for Hermes and now has her own shop, Rhino boots from a custom boot maker.
I might add, I am having some cigar cases made from alligator, a pair of Rhino boots, and a Bison robe.
I can get you the names if you want them.
I will see if my wife will let me post them - she designed a couple of the bags and is protective of them.I’d rather you post pictures specifically the bison robe because I want one . I’d also like to see the cigar holders as I’m a fan myself and that sounds awesome .
Trust me, that was discussed - and some of her bags come from there. But she is highly critical of finish and stitching, and more importantly - wanted to participate in the design.You should have made it done in SA.
They do a lot of stuff like that locally and half the time and price.
Could you send me the names as wellBoth, some have come from vendors at DSC/SCI, some from a woman who worked for Hermes and now has her own shop, Rhino boots from a custom boot maker.

Awesome if you can it’s appreciated. If not it’s still appreciatedI will see if my wife will let me post them - she designed a couple of the bags and is protective of them.
As soon as I get the cigar holders, boots and robe I will post those. Cigar holders should not be much longer I am told.
Do you have a picture? My wife just said she might actually like that instead since we are building a gun/game room and that would go great in there.I had my taxidermist make me two pillows from my kudu back skin. They sent the back skin off to have them made, black leather on the back and kudu hide on the front, beautiful with the stripes of the kudu. They are each about 14” square, maybe a little bigger. Also had a long lumbar type pillow made from the sable back skin
I was smart enough to buy her the watch before I left for Africa. Followed up with a pair of red heels when I got home. Happy wife is happy life!Seriously?!? Forget the animal hide. Jewelry - nice quality jewelry - in the same price range as the taxidermy bill - 18 carat and not the 14 carat stuff. That will make an impression.
I als had the bullet from my sable plated in gold and put a diamond in it to make her a necklace. That went over better.I told my wife she could have the scrotum from my cape buffalo. She wasn’t impressed.
