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.
