Rowland Ward: A massive Caribou trophy

Lots 211-215 were all purchased at the Cadbury Sale of Taxidermy.

In the late 1980s a sale of important natural history items was offered at the home of one of the Cadbury chocolate family at Bourneville. The collection was indeed the property of the Cadbury's and so the auction came to be known as the Cadbury sale. All of the items were remarkable and many of them were the work of the famous Rowland Ward Company of Piccadilly, London. Due to the provenance and the sheer quality of the work, the pieces sold for what were then very high prices. Summers Place is pleased to offer several pieces that were acquired at this sale.
