 The carved decoy is the only truly American
Folk Art -for the Duck and Goose Decoy as an aid to hunting was devised by the
Native American Indian as early as AD. 1000. Using reeds and bulrushes
they created the first decoys, this in turn set the stage for early Duck and
Goose decoy carvers such as Perdew, Crowell Elliston and Many others to
follow.
Those first decoys
they produced created Power and Magic.
Today that magic is
called 'Art'.
Here in
Montana's 'Big Sky Country' the Artisans at Lakeside Decoys are
proud to carry on that same Tradition and Magic.

We here at Lakeside
Decoys (formerly 'Big Sky
Decoys') believe you will find we
offer the best value in American-made, Decorator Decoys anywhere. Our decoys
are handcrafted in our Mountain-top Studio in Montana's, 'Big Sky Country', from
locally grown Ponderosa Pine and finished with Translucent Oils and Stains
allowing the natural beauty of the wood to show thru. Glass eyes are used to
give the Decoys that extra touch of life like quality.
