Hunters' Atelier
Description
We specialise in the preparation and adornment of ethically sourced animal skulls using Swarovski crystals to create beautiful and unique works of art. Hunters' Atelier is a mother and daughter partnership created from a shared love of art and design, the outdoors and the indoors, nature and life in all its glorious forms.
Specialising in creating unique works of art using ethically sourced wildlife heads, from Highland Cows to African Gazelles, we also extend our craft to any unique commissions, from head phones to furniture and interior design.
Our skulls are sourced in Scotland, some byproducts of the food industry and some reclaimed from Victorian pieces of taxidermy.
All our skulls are real, no resin or plastic forms, therefore have natural imperfections and imbalances in structure. There is no true symmetry with one side always being slightly different to the other, what is always true is that each piece is unique and will never be copied.
We use only genuine Swarovski crystals to embellish our skulls.
Each skull is completely individual and is like no other.
This is what makes our skulls unique and indeed all our craft.
With a First Class Degree in Design from Glasgow School of Art, Jane has spent a life in design, whilst daughter Lauren has created beautiful interior designs since leaving University where she studied Interior Architecture and Design.
