Yes beautiful work. If you offered them for sale you would shift lots I am sure. But also understand that when you have created something it can be hard to let them go. Keep it up would love to see more when you do them

Thank you all for the nice and friendly response.
The single Moose on the last Photo and the Bear are sold and are now back in Lapland, where the Antlers have come from.
i made them by customers order.
The fighting Bull Moose Antler, called " Nordic Battlefield" is my last work and still here by me and for sale.
All so The Reindeer / Caribou Antler is not sold yet.
I finished it 3 weeks ago.
It shows my Love and Respect to the northern Parts of Sweden Norway and Finland.
I call it:"Beloved Lapland"
This moose antlers has something to tell.
The left side symbolizes the warmth and the growth in the short but intense summer period, lapland represented by the typical cloudberry, the grazing reindeer, a jumping fish and the soft and warm design in the border area. Finally, the upper end of the midnight sun was incorporated symbolically.
The right side shows the cold and hard Lapland, in the form at the top right of the Aurora Borealis and in the form of an ice crystal. The right edge of the area is hard-edged in the form of ice,which is rumpeling down the streams and rivers in the springtime.
The design of the base closes the circle,a feather for the air. the fish is symbolic for the water and the reindeer for the earth.
As I said, it is my declaration of love to the high north and the wonderful people who live there.
I work by custom order ore by my own ideas.
All so someone can send me his own Antler, we talk about the design, which animal ore motive is wanted,by the carving process i send pictures and when it is done, i send it to the customer back.
This is the way i have done for some times.
If someone wants to see more of my work he can visit my webside: www.saeg-werk.de

There is a young fellow living in Northern B.C. who carves antlers very similar to these. He had a display of them at our Gun Show last Month, selling a few.
