Description: MY SPECIAL DUCK COLLECTION. SIX PIECES FROM VERY SPECIAL TO JUST UNIQUE. The large decoy is by famed carver Lewis Shelton of White Stone, Va, and in the past associated with the Decoy capitol in Havre de Grace, Md., and maybe elsewhere. Intricately hand crafted down to the details and directions of the individual feather barbs. Lots of time consuming effort. Solid chunk wood (not a head attached to a body like most). No damage and no restorations. She's about 9.5" tail to breast, 4" wide and 4" tall (Maxed out my photo allotment for listing, but I can send you other pics). This one is the bulk of my desired valuation! I tend to not do Auctions or Offers to keep my life simple. If my valuation is lite, then your gain. And vis versa. Accounts for about $800 of my number. Here's a link to Shelton. The vintage Ugly duck is more crudely hand carved from a solid block, but still really cool. No maker markings. 6.5" beak to tail, 3" tall and 3" wide. Maybe a private hand whittling project from some bored hunter back in the day. Nice job either way. Accounts for about $75 of my number. The Twins are from a series; The Boyd's Collection Masters Series. Signed. Accounts for about $50 of my number. The remaining two are a cool quality hand woven basket and a silly little pencil sharpener. This rounds out my duck offering. Just collecting dust in my little office space at home. I'm recently disabled, so I guess they just need to be liquidated to a respectful new home and into something I can pay bills with. The provided information on the origins of these are just my novice research. I do not know the wood species. I'll also send along the Google info on the original craver, Lewis Shelton to the buyer in case that is meaningful. I don't know if carver is still with us anymore. If I forget, remind me. Smoke/Pet free home. I only ship to Continental USA Addresses via USPS, or maybe UPS in a bind. Sorry for the USPS and other's bloated rates nowadays. Not my fault!!!THIS PACKAGE WILL INCLUDE SIGNATURE UPON DELIVERY SO PLEASE BE AWARE. Shippers calculate rate from my East Coasthome address to yours. For this listing, I plan to over pack and insure more than normal. Please inspect pictures and ask questions if needed or for additional pictures. I don't do returns or refunds because I'm trying to adhere to my wife's wishes to Downsize as we get older, not to bring things back here, so please ask before committing. Please consider looking at my other listings for more things. I have much more to list as I get to them. I can combine for your savings when combining makes sense and hopefully doesn't affect rates too much. We can work with each other on that. Your additional savings comes from bundling. Thank you for your time.
