Chital mount back

I recently received my Chital mount back and thought I would post a few photos. I had it done as a wall mount but decided to display it as a "pedestal" style. I had a piece of Norfolk Island Pine which has been drying for about 75 years and used that as the base.

A few photos.

and the base

The mount is very nice, but that wood is just exquisite! I am a sucker for nice wood, and that is just beautiful.

Beautiful mount, the Norfolk pine compliments the mount.
Was the shoulder mount done in Australia?

Nice
Most of the woods turn out very beautiful if you cut them 22.5 degrees
