On offer is a beautifully hand-carved and hand-painted wooden duck decoy, marked No. 2 on the underside—likely referencing its size in a numbered series. This vintage piece is a charming example of traditional folk art craftsmanship, showcasing the meticulous detail and character that make antique decoys highly collectible.

The decoy is carved from solid wood and finished in soft, muted tones of blue-grey, brown, and subtle russet red accents along the wings. Each feather is individually carved and hand-painted, creating an incredibly lifelike appearance with a stylized folk art aesthetic. The eyes are finely painted and expressive, giving the duck a lifelike presence, while the gracefully sculpted head and slightly turned beak add a sense of quiet movement.

Despite some gentle surface wear consistent with age and use, the condition is overall very good. There are no major losses or repairs, and the piece displays beautifully from all angles. The base is clearly marked “No. 2” in white paint.
