SALE Stoney Point Raymond Hornick Wooden Mallard Duck Decoy

Collectibles : Folk Art : Duck Decoy

 

The Hornick Brothers, Raymond (Rick) and Leonard (Len) started Stoney Point Decoys from the Oak Hall, Virginia area in 1972. Len was a carver and Rick the painter. It became one of the largest decoy factories in the world during it's prime in the 1980s. It was later sold then eventually closed in 2003.

This beautiful duck decoy which I believe is a Mallard drake is mounted on a board. It is one of the factory decoys hand painted by one of the brothers and signed on the bottom "Raymond E. Hornick 1984". The Stoney Point medallion is embedded on the underside with the number 12769. The decoy is beautifully painted in a matte finish. There is one small spot of white paint on the head, a small ding on the purple feathers on one side, a slight scuff on the end of the tail, and a nick in the bill that was painted over when made, as well as some minor scuffs here and there but no cracks or significant damage. The decoy sits on a board that is about 12.75" long and 7" wide. The decoy itself measures about 15" long, 6.25" tall, and about 6" wide. The eyes appear to be glass. Just a really nice addition to your decoy collection.
