Carved from a single piece of wood to form shape of a duck. The torso of the duck is carved out to form a cup. The tail is rounded out to form a pouring surface. The duck is flat on the bottom allowing the ladle to set weight on its own. The wood is natural in color and carving marks can be seen on it. The neck of the duck is out stretched with a 2-inch bill. There are no facial features or legs. Color: TN
