“Beautiful Likeness of a Unique Duck”

In 2018 a Mandarin duck appeared in Central Park, New York seemingly out of nowhere. That sparked my fascination with this duck. I was surprised and pleased to find this sculpture years later and was able to capture my own Mandarin duck. I love the sculpture and the incredible attention to detail and the realistic faithfulness to the duck. Okay, the real duck looks a little like a toy as well, but I am thrilled to have another sculpture by Nengah Sudarsana, and this one joins my small flock of ducks by him. Perhaps Ill take it to the lake in Central Park and see if another real one will show up to keep mine company.

“Gorgeous mandarin duck statuette”

This is our third duck statuette from this artist. Like the other two (wood duck and mallard hen), this is just beautiful.

“Calming Affect”

Love this sculpture and beautifully crafted. The grains of the wood stand out and enhances its presentation. As displayed, it has a calming affect and helps to reduce stress whenever I look at it. Just the right size to fit anywhere and not too small to detract from its detail. The cats eyes are what drew me to this sculpture from the outset.

As displayed, help to brighten any room

“Elegant female mallard”

Excellent workmanship but I was disappointed that the blue area was not as big or as bright as in photo. Looks like just a small accent of a darker or navy blue. I think it needs that beautiful brighter shade of blue to be at its best and is one of the reasons I purchased it.
