The swan features an elegantly curved neck and a head with inset dark eyes and a bill painted in black with a yellow accent. The flat, unpainted wooden base shows natural wood grain and a small knot. Markings on the underside include a burned-in brand for the Lac La Croix Ducks Unlimited Collection numbered 1855 and an inset brass-tone medallion inscribed Ducks Unlimited Special Edition 1988-89. The base is also hand-signed in ink by the artist, Robert Caprio. A white rectangular inventory label with a barcode is present on the lower side of the body.
