Gemsbuck/Gemsbok Mounts
Go Back EnquireGemsbok (Oryx gazella)
The Gemsbok, also known as the Southern Oryx, is one of Southern Africa’s most striking antelope species. Its long, spear-like horns, bold black-and-white facial markings and powerful build make it an unmistakable and highly sought-after African trophy.
Karoo Taxidermy offers an extensive selection of bespoke Gemsbok trophy presentations, including shoulder mounts, wall pedestals, floor pedestals, half-body mounts, European mounts, carved skulls, flat skins and framed wall portraits. Each trophy is individually designed to preserve the distinctive character and natural beauty of this iconic desert antelope.
Product information
Gemsbok trophies are particularly versatile and can be displayed in several traditional and contemporary styles. Shoulder mounts are available looking straight or with the head turned left or right, while wall-pedestal and floor-pedestal mounts offer a more sculptural presentation of the animal’s impressive body markings and proportions.
Alternative trophy options include bleached European skull mounts, freestanding table-mounted skulls, intricately carved skulls and professionally tanned flat skins. A framed Gemsbok wall portrait combines the facial skin, horns and hide within a decorative wooden frame to create a distinctive piece of wildlife art.
Each mount is individually assessed and crafted according to the trophy’s proportions, available skin and horn formation. Pose direction, pedestal design, habitat detail, shield style and decorative finishes can be customised to complement the client’s display space and personal preferences.
