Description

Impressive specimen, prepared in an exceptional way. This type of preparation requires meticulous work of tens of hours. Of course, the horns and spines during the preparation process have been fractured and glued again, with slight restorations in the fracture zones. A preparation like this without small restorations is impossible. It is an authentic specimen of Museum Grade. Horns and spines are prepared as free standing.
