Wild Turkey Whiskey Pheasant Figural Decanter

This item is a ceramic or porcelain whiskey decanter, crafted in the figural likeness of a pheasant or a similar game bird. It stands upright on what appears to be a faux tree stump base, molded and painted to resemble wood. The decanter is predominantly colored with naturalistic hues: the body is a mottled brown and beige, with distinctive reddish-orange feather details painted on, suggesting contour and texture. The head of the bird is painted in shades of gray-blue with a pinkish-red wattle or caruncle on its head and an open beak revealing a pink interior, giving it an engaging, lively appearance. The neck of the bird, which likely serves as the 'stopper' or the upper part of the decanter, is a vibrant reddish-pink color, providing a striking contrast to the body. A thin metal band can be observed at the joint where the neck meets the body, indicating a separation point, confirming its function as a decanter with a removable top. The bird's legs are painted a light yellow, and it appears to be standing on the brown-painted base. On the front of the base, a label or embossed text is visible, clearly stating "WILD TURKEY", identifying the original contents of the decanter as Wild Turkey whiskey. Another smaller, obscured label or tag can be seen next to it, likely providing additional product information. The craftsmanship appears to be mass-produced, typical of decanters issued by distilleries, and the colors are vibrant with no immediately apparent significant fading. There are no obvious chips, cracks, or repairs visible from the provided image, suggesting good overall condition for its age. Given the labeling, it likely dates from the mid to late 20th century, a common period for decorative liquor decanters. The quality is functional and decorative, rather than fine art pottery.
