Crappie

Pomoxis

Our Crappie eye, created with input from taxidermy experts, can be an excellent option for both commercial and competition taxidermy work. The eye features a medium-sized ovate pupil with a narrow golden edging, and a modulating iris, having a complex grayish-beige pattern. The eye is made from polymer resins (similar to acrylic). We use our own patented technology that gives them hardness, chemical stability, and heat resistance. The eyes can be dry-cleaned, treated with organic solvents, and heated to 130 degrees Celsius (about 260 degrees Fahrenheit) for about 20 minutes. The iris and pupil are digitally printed, which allows us to create very complex images. The image is refracted by the strong lens in a special way, creating the unique effect of a real eye. On the back side of the eye, there is a ribbed plastic peg that helps position and set the eye on a mold. It can be removed if not needed.
