For generations, Southeast Asian villagers clared bamboo fields and the roots were tossed into a large pile and burned. Now todays villagers have found employment and are preventing the air pollution this once caused. To creat these unique ducks, skilled artisans start with the body which is handcarved from a bamboo root. The carved root is then kiln dried too cure it. A head and feet made from reclaimed teak are then attached to the body before a specialized paint is applied. Each root with its unique shape, twists and curves, determine the personality or attitude of the creature. These ducks are weatherproof so you can put themout in your gardens or in a special place in your home. No two are alike!
