Antique American Hunting Canvasback Decoy Signed C.A. Locart & J.G. Hand-Carved Wood, Early 20th Century, 18" W x 6.5" D x 7" H This antique American canvasback duck decoy is a remarkable example of early 20th-century hunting craftsmanship, signed by C.A. Locart and J.G. Hand-carved from solid wood, this decoy measures 18 inches wide, 6.5 inches deep, and 7 inches high, making it an impressive piece for both display and collection. Canvasback ducks are the largest species of diving duck in North America. Male Canvasbacks are recognizable by their white bodies and maroon heads, while females are more gray with sandy-brown heads. These ducks are seldom found on dry land, preferring to sleep and nest on the water. This decoy features a bold, streamlined profile characteristic of canvasback ducks, prized by hunters for their distinctive sloping head and long bill. The deep, rich patina of the wood highlights the natural grain, with subtle carving marks that add texture and character. The orange glass eyes lend a lifelike quality, enhancing its realistic appeal. On the underside, the decoy bears the impressed signatures of C.A. Locart and J.G., adding to its historical significance and collectible value. The piece shows age-appropriate wear, including minor surface imperfections and a charming patina that reflects its authentic use in waterfowl hunting. Perfect for decoy collectors, folk art enthusiasts, or those seeking rustic Americana decor...
