The Ruddy Pocket duck decoy, hand carved from sustainably harvested and locally sourced Atlantic White cedar. Hand painted in a 'working' decoy style, with distressed paint and hand-rubbed furniture wax finish. Reproduction of an antique used in NE North Carolina and SE Virginia. Called 'Pocket' Ducks because their small, rounded size were perfect for carrying in hunting overcoats, eliminating the need for large rigs of decoys.
