Description

I am sorry that the stag painted on this isn't showing up well... there really is no camera angle I can take to appropriately show his antlers since he wraps around with the shape of the antler.

Acrylic on a broken antler.

This was given to me. It is farm-waste. This antler was discovered in a bale of hay at the horse farm where I work. It is broken because it went through a baler.

I am not sure I can sell this - I've read somewhere that there is a law in my state (PA) against picking up shed antlers in the woods. I do not think my owning this violates that as this was taken from a private property where it is waste - a thing obnoxiously present in horse-food where it wasn't supposed to be and given to me by the person who found it in her feed, but I still may not be able to sell it.

It may be legal to sell it. I've bought whitetail antlers at the Bloomsburg Fair, both whole ones and pieces, and I've bought pieces of them in pet stores packaged up as dog chews.
