Skins for Sale
Hand-finished, hair-on game skins and hides, straight from our Cape Town tannery.
From striking zebra to soft springbok and classic Nguni hides, every skin we sell is tanned right here at Cape Game Skin by our own team. Our stock changes all the time, so the best way to see what's available is to ask us. We'll gladly send you real photos of the skins we have on hand today.
Why buy a skin from Cape Game Skin?
We're a working tannery and taxidermy studio just outside Cape Town, and we've been finishing game skins for hunters, decorators and retailers for years. When you buy from us, you're buying straight from the people who tanned it.
Tanned in-house
Every skin is processed and hair-on tanned at our own tannery in Fisantekraal, by skilled tanners who take pride in the finish.
See the real skin first
Each skin is unique in colour and markings, so we send you real photos of what's in stock before you decide.
Proudly South African
We're a member of the South African Taxidermy & Tannery Association (SATTA), committed to ethical practice and professional standards.
