Eyrie Mantle
Phase 1
April 5, 2009 
 
   


 
 

The first consideration in creating the mantling hawk was to find a suitable antler approximately the size of a Broadwing. That requires a height of 13-15" and a broad shaped wing approximately 12" in length. It also requires an antler that can stand alone on an angle sloping forward with sufficient material to create the head, a gentle arching sweep for the extended wing and a full palm with enough material for the opposing wing....and a maximum of only10" from front to back. Whew!
