Lot 183:
Vintage 30" Canadian Goose Decoy
Description
Vintage Canadian Goose decoy measuring approximately 30 inches in length. This hand-painted, hollow-bodied wooden decoy features a black head with white cheek detailing, a gray and brown body with painted feather patterns, and a rigid tail insert. The bottom of the decoy is fitted with a ballast weight for stability on water, securely attached with screws. The craftsmanship and painted details suggest use as a working decoy, possibly for hunting or decorative purposes.
CONDITION: The decoy exhibits evident signs of use and age, including areas of paint loss, surface wear, and cracks visible along the body and underside. A notable split runs longitudinally along the base, but the structure remains intact. The paint shows moderate fading, particularly in high-contact areas. The ballast weight is securely affixed, and the overall form remains stable. No significant missing components are observed.
