I have this duck made of milky white glass. It has a stamp on the bottom Pat D - March 15, 1887. I've had it for at least 20 years. Any help identifying it would be appreciated.

Usually I see ducks popular in mid-century 20th C. Interesting to see a patent 1880s duck.
CW has an article including info on this Atterbury duck:

TallCakes, thank you so much for the link to the article. It's really nice to finally find out what type of duck I have...An Atterbury duck. Should I look to get it restored (I know it has a few bruises) or appraised? I would hate for something to happen and I don't have it insured.
Thank you for all the love, replies and links for my item. I will be asking for more help on other items. Thanks again....bmore18
most often with this type of glass insurance is cost prohibitive. These have been reproduced and fairly easily procured at a reasonable price.
Understood....Thank you so much TallCakes.
