Decoys with old Japanese paper attached/Bird ornaments/20th century

About the Item

I would like to introduce an old Japanese figurine covered with paper. This is probably a duck figurine that was originally made as a decoy. Decoys are not only found in Northern Europe, but also in Japan and Korea. This decoy has washi paper pasted on it. There are some kanji characters written above the head. I don't know why the washi paper is pasted on it, but by hiding the carvings, eyes, and feathers, it has turned into an abstract work with only a silhouette. Still, the wabi-sabi atmosphere of this washi paper is attractive and I think it is very beautiful. It is small in size and can be displayed on a shelf as a figurine. There are no major defects. It is in good condition. Weight: 0.45 kg [We mainly sell old Japanese items. We've seen tens of thousands of items so far. Taking advantage of that experience, we are posting attractive items here. We are able to do this because we have many years of experience. There are parts of Japan that are familiar to Japanese people but are still unknown to the rest of the world. We will continue to offer products that will allow you to fully experience this feeling.]
