Taxidermy isn't for everyone. We genuinely appreciate all forms of art and curio and would like to thank all who have taken one to their new home.

However

There are now only 4 beautiful examples left in the shop. As we are unlikely to take them to Durham, simply as there is a fantastic dealer who specialises in this field, his unit is stunning.. these ideally need new homes.

So... we are open to offers this weekend, its always worth asking. Pop in and see us. X

Its important to look back at day one and the start of our snazzy journey. Its really interesting to see how the shop was laid out with so many of the items now in their new home (including the stop/go sign).

From the buildings open day, where we arrived surprised to find keen folk already browsing, to the incredible opening weekend we have felt the love for The Canny Badger.

Thank you to everybody who has shown us such kindness and positivity, its incredibly humbling.

Exciting news coming very soon, this week in fact. Groovy x

New big stuff including a brilliant new chair.

Its not for sale, not for home, not to be given away and its too big for the shop as it is, but....for where its going and what it will be used for its absolutely perfect.

Cryptic like the riddler on a busy day for riddles...any guesses?

Couple of announcements this week... watch the relevant space at the time or afterwards . Not this space, this is just about our new chair.
