BEAUTIFUL NEW 37" WOOD MODEL WARSHIP.

FRIESLAND - 1663

The Dutch warship Friesland was built around 1663 for the "Seven Provinces" fleet of the Netherlands and was part of the great fleet of the United Province of Holland. In 1672 She took part in the Battle of Solebay, against Anglo-French forces as part of the Dutch fleet under the command of Michel de Ruyter, Lieutenant Admiral of Holland and Admiral of the Fleet.

The model is handcrafted from scratch by skilled craftsmen and built according to scale of the original ship, through original plans or pictures using plank on frame construction. The hull is joined by multi-pieces of dry thin wooden bar together. Inside the hull a special glue is used which helps thin wooden bars stay close to one another and not split, crack or twist when the weather changes.

The construction method is entirely by hand and it takes hundreds of man hours to finish.

Only the highest quality woods like rosewood, ebony, blackwood, mahogany and teak are used in building all my model ships. In general, this is how the following woods are used:

Ebony (for blocks and small details)
English Sycamore (for the hull)
Rosewood (for the hull)
Blackwood (for the hull)
Mahogany (for the masts, squares, crow nests)
Cherrywood (for the deck)
Canons, muskets, anchors and other tiny details are made of metal (for decoration)
Sails and rigging lines are made of linen.

The flag is made from material not plastic.

SHIPPING CHARGE SHOWN IS FOR THE CONTINENTAL U.S. ONLY. INTERNATIONAL PAYMENTS ARE ACCEPTED THROUGH PAYPAL ONLY.

THIS IS NOT A TOY AND MUST BE KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN.

THE SHIPMENT COMES CRATED AND BOXED. IT WEIGHS ABOUT 80 POUNDS AND IS APPROXIMATELY 48"X48"X24"

AVAILABLE TO THE LOWER 48 STATES ONLY.
