A decoy. Long 28 cm. High 12 cm. Wide 14 cm. On the underside two iron bars for the application of lead weights. The decoy was apparently meant not for catching ducks but for coots. A decoy coot is very unusual. The bird is in a good general condition with signs of extensive use. Dutch, nineteenth century.
