About the Item

A fantastic, large hand-carved swan decoy with a beautiful, natural glowing patina that comes with age. This piece has a wonderful classic shape and finely carved texture. The work is signed by the artist (Esmer) and dated (1929) on the base/underside. Swan decoys are fairly uncommon. This piece has a great feel and heft to it. Would be a great addition to any folk art decoy collection or an eye-catching stand-alone accent piece in about any setting. Dimensions: 14" high, 19" wide, 8" deep.
