Wooden Duck Sculpture | Preen

This one-of-a-kind Fence Post Real Wood Duck Sculpture is carefully handcrafted using a rich piece of American history.  

• Because every fence post has its own unique past told in its grain, color, and shape, each fence post duck is also completely different in size, shape, and color.
• Over 100 years ago, homesteaders along the Rocky Mountains staked out new land by planting juniper (cedar) fence posts around their property strung with barbed wire to contain cattle.
• Invented by woodworker Wayne Murray and perfected by former liturgical sculptor Tim Bergren, each Fence Post Wood Duck is created from a genuine, juniper fence post recycled from early American West ranches.
• Part historical artifact, part original work of art, a portion of each duck remains unfinished to reveal the quality, history, and texture of the original wood post set against the smooth, polished wood of the sculptural portion.
• The juniper fence post wood (cedar) is naturally insect-repellent and weather-resistant
• Pieces vary in color from deep red wood to honey-gold and blonde The Fence Post Duck Sculpture Medium embodies the artists' desire "to create something new from something that holds so much history" and makes a fascinating conversation starter.
