English Country House Auction

Antique French decoy duck from the early 20th century. It is in fairly good condition, retaining parts of its original polychrome finish. Underneath, in the base, are the holes where the counterweight was attached. Handcrafted. Lovely details. I would say it is very old. Very lightweight to ensure buoyancy. Small holes can be seen on the head, which may be from shotgun pellets.

Shipping to Europe. Shipping costs may vary for the islands. No shipping to the US.

Antiguo pato señuelo francés de principios del S XX. Está bastante bien conservado, manteniendo partes de la policromia original. Por debajo, en la base, hay los agujeros donde se sujetaba el contrapeso. Hecho de forma artesanal. Bonitos detalles. Diria que es muy antiguo. Peso muy bajo para asegurar la flotabilidad. En la cabeza se observan pequeños agujeros que podrian ser de perdigones.


Envíos a Europa. En las islas el precio del envío puede variar. No envíos a EEUU.
