Primitive Hand Carved Wooden Duck Decoy Working Folk Art Rustic Separate Head

Hunters have been carving working decoys like this by hand for generations, shaping a simple wooden body and head to float on marsh and lake and draw ducks in. Today these rustic carvings are collected as folk art and look great on a mantel, shelf, bookcase or cabin wall. This one has the plain, honest shape of a hunting decoy, with a dark brown weathered finish and a head and neck carved as a separate piece and fitted to the body.
