Instead of wings it has a pair of red paddle blades on a center hub, made to spin in the wind. Somebody built this by hand and painted it with what they had.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt was made to sit on a post by the pond and turn in the breeze. Now it can come inside. Maybe on a pedestal in the mudroom, next to the boots and the waxed jackets. Maybe on a shelf in the study, above the field guides. Maybe on the mantel at a lake house, blades still, the way the birds look when they set their wings to land.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt doesn't just sit still. It still looks like it's going somewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrimitive hand-made whirligig in cut and painted wood: a mallard in profile with red paddle blades on a square hub, held on with a screw, and a glass bead eye. 23\" from beak to tail. A metal tube underneath takes a rod; the base and rod are not included, so it needs a stand or a post to display. Worn and alligatored paint throughout, with losses to the blades, head and body, and wear to the edges, shown in the photos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the mudroom, the study, or anyone who has spent a cold morning in a duck blind. #followthefeeling @tallmadge_ave_vintage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach piece is vintage or antique and has lived a life before finding its way to Tallmadge Ave; natural signs of age, wear, patina, and imperfections are part of its character and are to be expected.
