Product Details

Ken Harris established a renowned decoy-making enterprise in Woodville, New York, producing working and decorative waterfowl carvings that became highly sought after by collectors. Over the years, skilled carvers like Tom Ferguson collaborated with the workshop to produce exceptional hand-carved and painted birds that captured the likeness of various species with great artistic detail. The tradition of American decoy carving transitioned from practical hunting tools to celebrated folk art pieces during the mid-to-late 20th century. Decoys bearing the Woodville mark represent a distinct era of regional craftsmanship where traditional carving techniques were preserved and elevated for the collector market.
