Cast Iron Moosehead Bottle Opener

BOTTLE OPENER, that is an antique replica cast iron head of a moose. The opener measures 4 1/4 inches tall and 3 1/2 inches wide and is a wall mount style with holes for screws (screws not provided). Ancient techniques or early forms of taxidermy for preserving entire or parts of animals and humans were secret arts, frequently associated with religious ceremonies and mystical rites. Protecting the dead from decay was variously understood as a means of easing the transition of the spirit between this world and the next, harnessing supernatural forces, or accessing knowledge of the natural and supernatural worlds.
