Decorative Wooden Flies
Unique gifts for your favorite fisherman
All these
beautiful reproductions have hand carved basswood bodies
textured to produce a soft realistic look. Wings are thin basswood with burned
shafts and splits to create a feathery look, hackles
and tail are formed with reeds or straw and inserted into the body. Hooks
may be part of the body or a decorative hardwood insert such as cherry. They are
then painted with acrylics using brush and airbrush and sealed to protect
from fading. Each of these wooden flies is signed and has a card attached as
each is an original and guaranteed to
delight the owner .As
with most handmade items, these carvings will vary in cost depending upon
the complexity of each finished piece. A review of the “Gallery” page
will give you an idea of cost as it relates to complexity. Most custom
flies range in cost from $200 to $500.
