Custom Taxidermy Mounts in Greeneville TN
SERVICES DETAIL
At Savage Creations Taxidermy, we believe every mount tells a story — and no two stories are the same. Our custom studio mounts allow hunters, collectors, and wildlife enthusiasts to turn their trophies into one-of-a-kind works of art. Located in Greeneville, Tennessee, our family-owned studio designs, sculpts, and finishes custom mounts that capture the emotion, setting, and spirit behind every hunt.
From elegant pedestal mounts to full scenic displays, our custom work combines precision anatomy with creative presentation. Every detail is intentional — the pose, the base, the habitat, and the expression — all crafted to reflect your unique memory and style.
Bringing Your Vision to Life
A custom mount starts with your story. Whether you want a mount that mirrors the terrain of your hunt, a pose that highlights a unique feature, or a display that complements your home or lodge, we’ll work directly with you from concept to completion.
Our process includes:
Listening to your story and goals for the display
Reviewing photos, antlers, or other trophies for accuracy
Designing poses that enhance the natural anatomy of the animal
Creating realistic habitat bases using natural materials and hand-crafted elements
Final finishing for lifelike detail and balance
Every mount is customized to the client — not mass-produced or copied. We design and build each piece to reflect your personality, hunting tradition, and passion for wildlife.
Custom Mount Options
At Savage Creations Taxidermy, you can choose from a wide range of custom mounting options, including both classic and artistic designs:
Shoulder Mounts with Artistic Backboards
We can incorporate decorative panels, backdrops, or lighting for a refined wall display.
Pedestal Mounts
Freestanding mounts that showcase the animal from all angles. Ideal for large rooms, trophy areas, or lodge entries. Bases can include wood, stone, or natural habitat materials.
Wall Pedestal Mounts
These angled designs create depth and movement, displaying more shoulder and profile for a dynamic, lifelike appearance.
Habitat Scene Mounts
We recreate the animal’s natural environment — from rocky mountain slopes to forest floors — using realistic vegetation, dirt textures, and terrain features.
Group and Companion Displays
For hunters with multiple animals from the same trip, we can design connected or matching mounts that share a cohesive theme.
Full-Body Custom Mounts
Capture the animal in action — running, standing alert, or mid-stride. These mounts are fully sculpted and balanced for anatomical precision and dramatic presentation.
The Savage Creations Custom Mounting Process
1
Consultation and Design
We begin by learning about your hunt, your goals, and your preferred display space. We sketch and plan the pose, base, and environment to match your vision.
2
Hide Preparation and Tanning
All hides are sent to a professional tanning service, where expert techniques prevent cracking and hair slip while maintaining flexibility and natural color.
3
Form Selection and Modification
Commercial forms are customized or sculpted from scratch to match the animal’s measurements and posture. We shape musculature, facial structure, and stance by hand.
4
Mounting and Detailing
The hide is fitted carefully for natural expression and symmetry. We hand-paint and finish features like eyes, nose, and inner ears for realism.
5
Habitat Building
We design and build custom bases or wall scenes using durable materials and realistic vegetation. Every texture and color is chosen to complement the mount.
6
Final Inspection and Delivery
Before delivery, we inspect every detail for accuracy, strength, and lifelike finish. You’ll receive a lasting piece that’s both artistic and authentic.

Savage Creations Taxidermy is known across Greeneville and East Tennessee for our dedication to authentic artistry and family-driven quality.
