About the Item

🦆 Curated Collection of Artisanal Duck Figurines – Ceramic, Wood & Wicker (Set of 6) A poetic flock, hand-selected and thoughtfully composed, Whispers from the Pond is a collection of six avian sculptures united by material poetry and regional craftsmanship. With glass-eyed ceramic ducks, a woven wicker figure, hand-carved woodwork, and a whimsical ceramic duck box, this ensemble captures the harmony of nostalgia and design. A charming fusion of form and folk artistry, this ensemble blends rustic warmth with collectible whimsy. Collection Includes: Wicker Duck Hand-woven wicker construction; subtle patina and elegant stance in pale blue tones Wooden Duck 1 Solid hardwood carving in chestnut finish; orange beak and wing accents Ceramic Duck Box Hand-painted with rich, cheerful color palette; lid conceals storage for small keepsakes Ceramic Duck 1 Hand-painted ceramic with grey head, vivid red beak, and glass eyes; red-white feather motif Ceramic Duck 2 Sleek silhouette featuring ochre and terracotta tones with hand-drawn details Ceramic Duck 3 Blue-beige ceramic with glass eyes; stylized brushwork and feathered elegance Condition: Gently used, each piece professionally cleaned; faint patina consistent with age Dimensions: Wicker duck 19x9x11 cm Wooden duck 16x6x9.5 cm Duck box with lid 5x2.5x4 cm Large ceramic duck 12.5x5x6 cm Medium ceramic duck 10x4x4.5 cm Small ceramic duck 6.5x2.5x3.5 cm Sold as a complete curated set. European craftsmanship from mixed media artisans Ideal For: Bookshelf styling, mantel displays, collector’s cabinets, or conversation pieces Excellent vintage condition with light character marks from age “Migration in Miniature: A Study in Form, Craft & Whimsy” Each duck in this curated flock tells its own quiet story—of hand-shaped clay, brush-dipped feathers, and weaves of wicker spun with intention. United in theme but diverse in origin, this ensemble becomes more than decor: it’s a gentle homage to the artistry of everyday animals, captured through the eyes and hands of European artisans. Together, they evoke nostalgia, play, and stillness—like a countryside afternoon suspended in time. I selected these six over time, not for uniformity, but for the gentle conversation they create when placed together. They remind me of the way memory gathers—not in a straight line, but in textures and moments. There's a quiet humour in them, too—glass eyes that follow, a basket duck leaning slightly forward, as if it might waddle off.
