This vintage mallard drake carries the kind of honest wear that only time and use can create.

Why You Will Love It
There is something special about a decoy that does not look brand new. The worn paint and softened edges tell a story. Whether it spent time in a blind or simply decades on display, it feels rooted in outdoor tradition.
This piece would look incredible layered on a bookshelf, styled with duck prints and vintage sporting books, or added to a cabin, lodge, or lake home setting. The patina gives it depth that newer reproductions simply cannot replicate.
At Outdoor Attic, we believe pieces with character bring warmth and meaning into a space. This one does exactly that.
Eco Conscious and Collected
Choosing pre loved decor preserves craftsmanship and reduces waste. Natural imperfections are part of the story and add to its authenticity.
