Framed Pair of Early 20th Century French Duck Decoys
About the Item
Once perched at the water’s edge, this pair of early 20th-century French duck decoy silhouettes has swapped the marsh for a more refined setting. Cut from wood and painted black, their simple, graphic forms once fooled real ducks—but today, they charm with their effortless folk art appeal. Framed in a shadow box and set against a linen backdrop, they take on a new life, their crisp silhouettes feeling both rustic and modern. There’s something undeniably stylish about their pared-down design—at once practical and poetic, functional yet effortlessly chic. Time may have retired them from their original purpose, but they now shine as striking pieces of French country craftsmanship. Whether hung in a cozy farmhouse or a sleek city space, they bring a touch of history, a dash of whimsy, and just the right amount of understated elegance.
