Frequently Asked Questions

Do you sell antique or vintage taxidermy pieces in your shop?
Yes, Mz. Jones' Curio carries antique and vintage items alongside fresh taxidermy work, making it a great source for collectors. Older mounts can be a great find for decorators and museum-style display enthusiasts.
Can you create a taxidermy piece that fits a specific artistic or decorative theme?
Custom artistic taxidermy is very much part of what this studio does, blending specimen work with gallery-quality presentation. Customers who have a specific aesthetic in mind, whether Victorian, rustic, or modern, can discuss their vision during a consultation.
Do you accept specimens for traditional hunting trophy mounts?
Yes, standard deer, turkey, and fish mounts are part of the taxidermy services offered. Even conventional trophy work here tends to carry a more thoughtful presentation than a strictly utilitarian shop.
What types of birds can be mounted, and are there any legal restrictions?
Legally harvested game birds like pheasant, turkey, and duck can be mounted with no issue. However, migratory songbirds and raptors are protected under federal law, so only birds legally obtained with proper permits can be worked on.
Is this a good source for unique gifts or home decor items?
Absolutely, the combination of taxidermy, antiques, and art makes Mz. Jones' Curio a genuinely unusual shopping destination. It's a strong option for anyone looking for a distinctive gift or a statement piece for their home.
Can you restore or repair an older taxidermy mount?
Many taxidermists with art and antique experience are comfortable doing restoration work on aging mounts, including repainting, reattaching loose parts, and refreshing faded areas. It's worth calling ahead to discuss what the piece needs and whether restoration is feasible.
