About the Item
Antique Giltwood Mythical Duck Sculpture – Decorative Folk Art Figurine
An enchanting antique giltwood sculpture depicting a mythical duck-like creature, exuding a charming blend of folk artistry and imaginative design. Finely hand-carved from wood and finished in rich gold leaf, this whimsical figure showcases exaggerated, stylized features—including a pronounced beak, arched neck, and a textured ridge along its back—suggesting a fantastical or symbolic representation rather than a naturalistic one.
Likely originating from 19th to early 20th century decorative traditions, this piece may have served a ceremonial, ornamental, or architectural function. The worn gilt patina and subtle surface wear lend authenticity and character, emphasizing its age and craftsmanship.
Mounted on a custom black metal stand for elegant display, this sculpture is a striking conversation piece, perfect for collectors of folk art, mythical motifs, or unique gilded antiques.

The gilded surface shows minor areas of rubbing, small nicks, and light abrasions, particularly on high points, revealing traces of the underlying wood. Overall, the piece retains a lovely aged patina and displays beautifully.
