R. Takai Carved 8.5 Duck Decoy on Stand (#7)
Welcome to Antiques & Moore! This listing is for a nice duck decoy on stand carved by R. Takai of New Orleans LA in 1989. This decoy has finely delineated feathers and exquisite painted details with inset glass eyes. Signed with carved signature R.

LA, 1989 on bottom of decoy. Measures 4" high (carving only), 4 7/8" high (including stand), 8 1/2" long with the stand measuring 4 5/8" in diameter. This nice decoy is in very good Estate condition with beautiful paint with noted flaws being a repair to one of the extended top feathers. It is a clean break, however, there is a slight shine on the matte paint from the glue used in the repair. There is also a small break in feather edge on one side (see photos).

Overall, the condition is still considered to be very good. Please note that we are not decoy collectors, however, we can't help but appreciate the quality and workmanship of this cute miniature decoy. If you have any specific questions regarding this decoy, please inquire and I will do my best to respond to any concerns.
