Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

This set of three nineteenth century decorative sculptures comprises hand-carved wooden decoy ducks in the folk art style. Each piece exhibits a warm brown colour with a weathered paint finish, tapered tail feathers, and visible scuffing to the paint, whilst the lead weights have been removed from the bases. The items rest on a polished timber surface next to white wall panels with vertical mouldings. Individual pieces measure 15 cm high, 30 cm wide, and 18 cm deep. These sculptural objects suit display on a mantelpiece in a highland hunting lodge style interior, bringing rustic character to traditional living spaces.

FAQs

Originally crafted as functional tools to attract wildfowl for hunting, carved wooden decoys evolved during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries into a recognised form of vernacular folk art.

Traditional decoys were carved from lightweight timber such as cedar, pine, or balsa wood, and finished with oil-based paints to withstand prolonged exposure to moisture.

Authentic decoys often feature lead ballast weights or inset glass eyes, alongside surface wear such as paint flaking, shrinkage cracks, and original carving marks around the bill and body.

A trio of carved wooden decoys can be displayed on a sideboard top, mantelpiece, or open bookcase to introduce organic texture, natural tones, and historical interest to modern spaces.

Dust gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or soft-bristled brush, avoiding liquid cleaners, solvents, or wax polishes that could lift or dissolve delicate original paint layers.
