FRAMING TAXIDERMY
Taxidermy is an art form where one attempts to preserve an animal’s body via stuffing or mounting for display purposes or for studies. There is a particular branch in Taxidermy that requires framing in order to enhance the beauty of the subject. These guys are called Lepidopterists. They collect, preserve and record our Butterfly population. Butterflies are an integral part of our eco system. It is a soothing sight for the eyes, as well as the soul. Scientifically called Macrolepidopterian clade Rhopalocera, framing these arthropods in itself is an art form. You can enhance the butterfly’s beauty by choosing the right frame and when framing in Dubai/Abu Dhabi, Pickframes is always the best choice. We hold a wide variety of frames, that can complement the wings of a butterfly no matter how you may want to preserve it i.e, winged or separated. In former state, the whole insect will be intact and in the latter, they will be separated and marked. They are used for display purposes and for research purposes respectively. One of the rarest beauties in the Middle East is called, Papilionidae or the Swallow Tail Butterfly. They have a sand yellow shade with black streaks on them. You can complement those colors by using Oak wood frames, with mild Celtic Carvings.
If it is for research purposes, one can go for a darker shade, as the aesthetics should be split between the frame and the insect. This is so because, we can engrave the name and other details of the specimen on the frame and make the whole viewings experience a lot more informative. So, the next time when you get your nets on a rare one, drop in by your nearest Pickframes outlet. Framing in Dubai/Abudhabi done right!
