Salmo salar
If you demand the most realistic version of the salmon eye, one of the best on the market, we think we have something to offer. Our Salmon 3 eye, inspired by taxidermy experts, can be an excellent choice for any competition and commercial mounts. The eye has a well-defined teardrop pupil, surrounded by a narrow golden ring and a speckled yellow and grey iris, which is true in texture and color.
The eye is cast from polymer materials (similar to acrylic) using 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 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.
