Loon Lake Decoy Company artists have been skillfully handcrafting wildlife sculptures following a tradition started hundreds of years ago by America’s first waterfowl hunters. Loon Lake Decoy Company’s goal is to provide you with the finest handcrafted, hand-painted wildlife sculptures and customer service available today. Loon Lake Decoy Company sculptures start as an original wood carving from solid Tupelo Gum by Master Carver Sam Nottleman. Casting molds are made from Sam’s originals, from these molds each sculpture is then hand-cast. We use a variety of casts to ensure that we capture every detail of the original handcarving. After finishing the raw sculpture, our staff of talented artists individually hand-paint each one, again making sure every detail of the original is passed on to each reproduction. When completed, a Certificate of Authenticity is applied. The Certificate of Authenticity features the limited edition number of the sculpture, insuring each will become a treasured family heirloom.

Black Duck, Swimming

This beautiful rendition of a Swimming Black Duck is sure to please. Considered North America’s wariest waterfowl the Black Duck is a close cousin to the Mallard. Because they look very much like a Hen Mallard only much darker they often are referred to as Black Mallards. Found almost exclusively in the Eastern United States the Black Duck is currently suffering from a population decrease due mainly to habitat destruction and interbreeding with Mallards.
