We have to say, our Sitting Duck sculpture is one of those pieces that catches your eye, but in a quiet kind of way. Sculpted from solid iron and finished with a mix of brown patina and soft blue oxidation, it has this naturally weathered look - more at home in an art gallery than a farmyard. It’s actually got a good weight to it (you can feel it when you pick it up), but its proportions mean it doesn’t dominate a shelf or vignette. The measurements are 5 by 14.5 by 8.5 centimetres, which we think is the perfect size for either centre stage on a coffee table or nestled amongst houseplants in an entryway.
And the thing is, ducks just always bring a sense of calm wherever they show up, especially when they’re this realistic and well-crafted. We see this piece as a thoughtful addition to spaces with earthy neutrals, or as a counterpoint to glass or marble decor, honestly - that warmth and the little hints of blue can lift even very modern rooms.
It’s been quite popular with customers who like giftware that skews classic-with-a-twist, but homewares buyers also like that this duck feels both decorative and functional - turns out there’s something reassuring about having something weighty and solid in the hand these days! And there’s no commitment to any particular design trend here either. It works for country-style, contemporary or even minimalist homes - or offices - thanks to its unique finish and the fact that ducks never go out of style.
