Why We Love This Taxidermy!
Edward A Leep, “Louie”, started taxidermy in Highland, Indiana on Lincoln Street in 1937. This was a part-time business as his main living was being the back bone and original starter of the Pleasant View Dairy in Highland as well. He took taxidermy lessons from Louis Scheer, a very well known taxidermist from Chicago.His shop was a shed in the backyard where he would mount birds and mammals, large and small, for the local sportsmen. Louie had six sons and one daughter. His son, Edward E Leep, was around the shed helping with various jobs at a young age. His love of nature and the outdoors, along with the artistic skill furthered him to spend his free time working in the shed.This Product Ships FREE!

Why We Love This Vanity!
In comparison to other copper, our manufacturer differentiates themselves by producing rich colors that are fired directly into the copper to allow it to self heal when it gets stained or scratched. With exposure to air the original colors will gradually return, as other company’s copper may leave ugly scars. Hammered copper is advanced in space and depth, and flat copper does not rise or bubble. It is sealed with hand-rubbed paste wax, not lacquer which would flake off. You will want to periodically wax the copper to keep it sealed and protected. Where sheets are joined are called soldier lines because they are virtually undetectable, leaving no sharp or pointed edges. Any copper you choose here is clean, even, smooth, thick and durable. We would love to help you design any piece for your place of refuge! Add $700 to include copper vessel sink, as seen on pictureThis Item Ships Free!
