The Story Behind the Emerson Pheasant Wall Mount
Emerson began in a storybook. Artist Jessica Hiemstra wrote Eric and Eloise, a tale of unlikely friendship between a fox and a hare. The Eric + Eloise Collection launched in 2017 as a holiday offering. It has grown into a year-round series with a whole cast of characters. Emerson is the dapper pheasant of the woodland crew, ready for his close-up. As Eric and Eloise decor, Emerson carries a piece of that story into your home. Each piece is Jessica Hiemstra wall art with its own character.
Plumage Worth Showing Off
Game birds like the pheasant have long been prized for their sweeping tail feathers. This Emerson pheasant wall mount shows that plumage in sculpted metal. The top hat turns a woodland bird into a gentleman at a society portrait. As pheasant wall decor, he adds height and movement to a wall. Fans of animal art will admire his tail. Pair him with Avery the pheasant, who faces him from across the wall. Together they make charming Jessica Hiemstra wall art.
The Woodland Crew Beside the Emerson Pheasant Wall Mount
Emerson keeps good company in this cast of Eric and Eloise decor. Margie is a scarf-adorned doe. Louie is a bow-tied mouse. Avery is a pheasant in a fascinator. Eloise is a bespeckled fox. Eric is a mustached hare in a monocle. Eugene is a monocled moose. Frankie is a pipe-smoking buck. Charlie is an aviator duck. Beatrice is a bear in round glasses. The collection celebrates friendship across differences. A quirky woodland crew finds belonging in one another. Each character has its own accessory and its own personality, so the cast invites collecting.
Hanging Your Emerson Pheasant Wall Mount
This Emerson pheasant wall mount has a keyhole slot on the back for hanging. At 8.25 lb, he should hang from a wall stud or a rated anchor. Leave room below him for his long tail. Hang him opposite Avery so the pair face each other. Dust the pheasant wall decor with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could dull the finish. Jessica Hiemstra wall art like this hangs well in any room. Eric and Eloise decor mixes easily with both vintage and modern pieces.
