Beautiful hand-carved and hand-painted bird sculpture.

It is of a particularly large size, resembling a goose.

These ducks were often used as decoys in hunting.

The weight is 1300 grams, excluding packaging.

Prachtige handgesneden en handbeschilderde vogelsculptuur.

Deze eenden werden vaak als lokeend gebruikt bij de jacht.

Het gewicht is 1300 gram, exclusief verpakking.
