Subtle amber knots from the original wood lend authentic character and highlight its artisan craftsmanship.

Beautifully hand-carved and painted wooden swan decoy sculpture, rendered with graceful lines and soft feather detailing. A substantial, solid piece with elegant form and warm natural patina.

The surface shows rust-colored patches, not from oxidation but from natural sap bleeding through the original wood, visible where small branches were once cut — adding unique character and authenticity to the carving.

While the piece was reportedly signed, no visible signature was found. Displays wonderfully as rustic lodge décor, coastal accent, or Americana folk art.
