Each category, when present, is carefully considered before a grade is assigned and recorded on the items individual
Grade & Specifications Certificate

- Taxidermy quality is Premier, showing fine detail in craftsmanship.

- Taxidermy quality is Excellent with great attention to detail.
- All attributes will be of fine quality & above average for the species/type.
- Estimate: 30% of Taxidermy items qualify to receive this ranking.
Recommendation: This category is ideal for the collector or decorator looking for a high quality item without the premium price tag. This is one of our most popular categories and comes with our highest recommendation for the typical decorator or collector.
Nice
™
Items ranked in this category are some of the most common items found in the market. These products will display good quality with a just a few imperfections, scars or range marks.
- Taxidermy quality is average and common throughout the marketplace.
- All attributes will be of standard quality and average size.
- Estimate: 30% of Taxidermy items qualify to receive this ranking.
Recommendation: This category is ideal for the collector or decorator looking for one of the best quality-to-price ratios we offer. Choose this category (or higher) for your weekend cabin, restaurant, man-cave or business. This is one of our most popular categories.
Fair
™
If ranked in this category, the item may have several naturally occurring flaws and/or imperfections, but still maintains good overall integrity and craftsmanship.
- Taxidermy quality is below average, but still maintains integrity.
- Attributes may be lower-grade and/or below average in size or quality.
- Estimate: 15% of Taxidermy items qualify to receive this ranking.
Recommendation: This category is ideal for the collector or decorator looking for the best possible price while still getting a fair overall quality mount. The fair grade ranking should not deter any collector or decorator from a one-of-a-kind piece.
Vintage
™
To be ranked in this category the item will have a vintage styling. Vintage items should not be assumed as poor, as these items may have previously been higher in quality. Components used in fabrication will also be of vintage or retro style.
- Taxidermy work is vintage or retro styled and varies in overall appearance.
- Attributes may vary greatly in size, shape and color in this category.
- Estimate: 15% of Taxidermy items qualify to receive this ranking.
Recommendation: The vintage classification usually refers to the products age, not necessarily its quality. These pieces are ideal for the vintage collector with an eye for a unique or one-of-a-kind piece. The classic look and retro appearance of vintage items have made this category increasingly popular among our clients.
Poor
™
Items graded under this ranking will have visible flaws such as discoloration, scarring, tearing and/or poor taxidermy quality. Though not all these categories are guaranteed to be flawed, items ranked as poor will be on the lower end of products available on the market, and for this reason, will have the lowest price point.
- Taxidermy quality may be inferior or substandard.
- Some attributes will most likely be damaged, broken, or missing.
- Estimate: Items with severe flaws or damage qualify to receive this ranking.
Recommendation: This category is ideal only for the buyer who, for example, intend to hang the item on the outside of a cabin or similar structure where snow, rain and sun will take their toll and further degrade the item over time, making the purchase of a higher quality mount unnecessary.
The Classic Grade with decorative accents
Classic
™
The “Classic” grade is unique to all the other grades in our system because it includes multiple qualifiers. First, the mount must be of great quality, and will most often grade in the Nice, or Excellent grade category. Second, the item will feature custom-made scenery, such as a border/frame or setting artistically enhanced by several traditional visual accents.
- Items with the Classic grade will most often include a mount of Nice or Excellent quality.
- Items including extensive, custom-made bucolic accents will receive this grade.
Recommendation: This category is perfect for the buyer who is looking for a one-of-a-kind piece that features old-fashioned flavor, hunting and fishing accessories, or represents something timeless, and traditionally found in a setting like a cabin or hunting lodge.

Plus +
™
To be awarded a Plus designation, the item must be at the top end of its grading tier. Items receiving a plus offer an exceptional value without paying the next grade level price. The following grades are eligible to receive the plus designation: Premier, Excellent, Nice, Fair and Vintage. Poor and World Class are not eligible to receive the plus designation.
- Each item receiving a plus will be at the upper portion of the grade.
- Estimate: the top 25% of each category receives the plus designation.
Recommendation: Look for plus grades if you would like the best possible mount without paying the next tier level price.

Examples of attributes eligible to receive the Star designation may include: a rare color or blend of hair colors, a unique horn or antler shape/size or an item that has an overall exceptional appearance/attribute that can’t be reflected by its grade alone. Pricing will vary for Star Graded items on a per item basis.
- The Star designation is given to items with exceptional overall appearances.
- Estimate: few items will meet the demanding criteria necessary to earn a star.
Recommendation: Look for Star designations to find the most unique and exceptional products we currently have to offer.
