Pintail Drake Duck Decoy - Big Sky Carvers

* Vintage Item

This nearly life size carving of a pintail drake duck was hand painted by well-known artist Mary Stevens and sold by Big Sky Carvers in Bozeman, Montana. This decoy was made prior to their 1987 move to Manhattan, Montana. They've discontinued their carved wood decoys, which are now collector pieces.

The duck measures 20 1/2 inches long, 7 inches tall to the top of its head and 6 inches across the breast. It weighs 2 pounds 6 ounces and is in excellent condition, with one small scratch on its left side (shown). It bears on the bottom the burned-in brand of the company and the handwritten signature of Mary Stevens along with the word 'Pintail.' Glass eyes, beautifully painted with excellent detail, impressive size...this decoy has it all.
