Bluebill Drake Duck Decoy w/ Glass Eye

Item Description

Dimensions: 14x5 1/2x7"

Condition: Has Scratches, Chips, Paint Wear, Separation Between Head and Body, a Large Split on the Bottom

Additional Information: This vintage solid wood duck decoy features a classic hand-carved form with striking yellow glass eyes and a weathered surface that reflects its age and traditional craftsmanship. Possibly depicting a Bluebill drake, the decoy displays the streamlined body and painted details commonly associated with working waterfowl hunting decoys. Crafted from what appears to be redwood or cedar, it carries the warm character and natural grain of aged wood, while its construction and style suggest possible ties to the Mason Decoy Factory tradition and a possible dating between 1820 and 1880. With its authentic folk-art appeal and sporting history, this piece makes an excellent addition for collectors of antique decoys, Americana, or rustic sporting décor.
