Jake Ferreira Pintail Drake
As Michael Miller puts it in Wildfowl Decoys of California…“One of the more inventive and prolific carvers in the San Francisco Bay area (Newark, CA) was Jake Ferreira” and I couldn’t agree more. His pintail decoys tend to be unique in posture. This hollow carved example circa 1930s is likely in a mix of original and old in-use repaint by the maker. Hollow carved and measures 16.5” in length.
