Whitetail Deer Antlers/Sheds with main beams measuring between 15 and 20 inches, measured around the curve.  Deer antlers are used in home decorating, creating antler lamps, antler chandeliers, sconces, carving horn and horn art.  In the whitetail deer family only bucks over 1 year old have antlers.  During winter bucks lose their antlers and then begin to re-grow new antlers.
