<div><br><b>The Fallow Deer (Dama dama) is a ruminant mammal belonging to the family Cervidae. </b>The male is a buck, the female is a doe, and the young a fawn. Bucks are 140-160 cm long and 90-100 cm shoulder height, and 60-85 kg in weight; does are 130-150 cm long and 75-85 cm shoulder height, and 30-50 kg in weight. Fawns are born in spring at about 30 cm and weigh around 4.5 kg. The life span is around 12-16 years. All of the Fallow deer have white spots on their backs, and black tips at the ends of their tails.</div><br/>

<div><br><b>The species is very variable in colour, with four main variants, "common", "menil", "melanistic" and "albinistic". The common form has a brown coat with white mottles that are most pronounced in summer with a much darker coat in the winter.</b> The albinistic is the lightest coloured, almost white; common and menil are darker, and melanistic is very dark, even black (easily confused with the Sika Deer). Most herds consist of the common form but have menil form and melanistic form animals amongst them (the three groups do not stay separate and interbreed readily).</div><br/>

<div><br><b>Only bucks have antlers, these are broad and shovel-shaped. </b>They are grazing animals; their preferred habitat is mixed woodland and open grassland. During the rut bucks will spread out and females move between them, at this time of year fallow deer are relatively ungrouped compared to the rest of the year when they try to stay together in groups of up to 150.</div><br/>

<div><br><b>The Steel Structure Keeps You Safe.</b> For each antler furnishing we construct an internal frame of 3/8" to 1"diameter steel that is hand forged and hammer struck to shape.

<div><br><b>Scottsdale Art Factory carries on the American Arts And Crafts Movement of the 21st century,</b> in the same way William Morris and John Ruskin (founders of the Arts and Crafts furniture movement in circa 1800 England) inspired Gustave Stickley (founder of the American Arts and Crafts movement) in America circa 1900. Frank Loyd Wright, Charles and Henry Greene (inspired architects of the ultimate cottages such as the <a style="font-size:12px;color:blue;font-weight:normal;"  href="http://www.gamblehouse.org/">Gamble House in Pasadena California</a>) are credited with raising quality standard to its highest level in their day. All of these great master craftsman also inspired the Marabella Brothers in the early 20th Century (founders of SAF circa 1913).</div><br/> 

<div><br><b>Every creative enterprise is always built on a foundation that was laid down by its predecessors.</b> Creative people are also dependent on the groundwork laid down by those who came before them.   H. J. Nick, artist and direct descendant of the Marbella brothers, and Scottsdale Art Factory have built on these foundations and have raised the bar of quality even higher.<b> Thus setting a new standard and offering the finest one of a kind handmade furnishings found anywhere in the world in the 21st century.</b></div><br/>
