Welcome
For me, taxidermy is a means of capturing the inherent beauty and vitality of nature.
I pay great attention to detail to ensure that every feather, expression
and natural pattern is preserved with precision

Last Friday I was allowed to do a course with Danielle, a very interesting and educational course with the reward of being able to take your own taxidermy bird home.A friendly and fun teacher who has an eye for her subject.
Last Wednesday I was allowed to put on a chew from A to Z at Daniëlle's workshop. It was an instructive process and plenty of time was taken for questions and help. I had a really nice day! Highly recommended if you want to learn or start birding!
I‘m in love with the work of this extraordinary,professional,dependable and supercreative taxidermist.Danielle Frenken creates gorgeous arrangements,has a perfect way to reproduce the nature and lifelike look of all her artworks and by the way she’s super friendly and kind.I bought my first pieces of her work a few years ago and year by year I bought more and more - so you Love taxidermy -you love Danielle‘s way of taxidermy -trust in me .Go on with your amazing work Danielle and thank you sooooooooo much for all the artworks I was able to collect so far-I guess I’ll collect a lot more of them-they are awesome ❤️
Bought a beautiful bee catcher and shipped internationally. I am very pleased with how smoothly the transaction went. Her work is gorgeous!
I purchased a beautiful piece of taxidermy from Danielle. She was very quick to answer any questions I had and was friendly and polite. Her work is of outstanding quality and she is obviously very professional and very skilled! The mount got to me in the UK in about a week in perfect condition- well wrapped for the journey. I would highly recommend.
Very nice and interesting workshop preparation, personal guidance, a lot of choice of birds and working with respect for the animals.Recommended!
I could not recommend Daniëlle's work more highly. I've commissioned several birds from her and she's always responsive, goes above and beyond to create the pieces of my dreams, and finishes everything impeccably. I'll definitely be coming to Daniëlle for more birds in the future!
Danielle is a very patient and kind taxidermist. The quality she delivers is by far one of the best in the Netherlands. When you are looking for a bird taxidermist, she is definitely the choice I would recommend! Next to commissions, she also offers workshops which are the perfect stepping stone for the beginning and even more experienced taxidermists.
Danielle’s work is first class! I am honored to have three of her stunning pieces in my collection (an African pied hornbill, a violet turaco and a black necked swan cygnet) and have a current commission in the works! Her reputation and the quality of her mounts and artistry precedes her.I’ve yet to encounter an artist more professional, creative, talented, responsive, meticulous, kind or willing to collaborate on ideas than Danielle. Whether you’re a first time taxidermy buyer or an avid collector, I cannot recommend her highly enough.My only issue is coming up with additional space in my home to feature more of her ethically sourced works of art...I will be a lifelong admirer and client!
I have already bought a lot of birds from Daniëlle. Her work is just extraordinary. It's no longer taxidermy, it's really art! She is very professional and keeps her commitments. I recommend her work to those who love taxidermized birds.
When I first discovered taxidermy, I was immediately intrigued by the concept of giving a deceased animal a 'second life' and being able to continue to admire it after death.Eventually I discovered Daniëlle for the first time through her Instagram page. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to follow her work closely ...I was immediately charmed by her work and the way she brought that bit of 'extra' that, in my opinion, is often missing from other taxidermists. More than any other taxidermist I know or follow, Daniëlle understands that it is about more than just the technique of setting up. Not only does she know very well how to capture the soul and dynamics of each bird, she also integrates it in a tasteful setting by giving equal attention to the presentation of the whole. For this she uses beautiful driftwood and sleek marble postaments that have become almost characteristic of her own unique style.It is no understatement to say that I have fallen in love with her work in the meantime and that has also translated into several successful committees (see photos).In conclusion ... I have become a regular customer and I heartily recommend fellow bird and taxidermy enthusiasts to do the same.
