BEAUTIFUL NEW 38"(long) x 32"(tall) x 13"(wide)" WOOD HANDCRAFTED MODEL SHIP
With our new Exclusive Edition, each model is uniquely identified by a serial number, which is laser cut to the hull of each model. With this number, we will be able to identify the date of a model, the material that we used on the model, the craftsmen who worked on each area of the model, the individual who inspected the model and also the professional packaging staff, who finally packed the model into shipping box. We put quality as a priority, thus we thoroughly supervise all steps of the ship building from beginning to end. The last photo shows a sample of what the serial number will look like.
The model ship is 100% hand crafted from scratch in wood using the “plank on frame” construction method. Hundreds of hours are required to finish a model like this. The completed model contains many details created by skilled master craftsmen. In addition, this model along with my other models are made from the finest woods available such as rosewood, mahogany, teak and other exotic tropical woods. Chrome and brass fittings constitute the excellence of the models and finally each model goes through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop.
THIS MODEL SHIP CANNOT BE COMPARED TO LESS EXPENSIVE MODELS OF CONSTITUTION. IT IS A PREMIUM MODEL SHIP.
USS CONSTITUTION - 1797 On March 27, 1794 - President George Washington signed an act to provide a naval armament. As a result of this act, ships were built to defend the young American nation. The contract for one of these ships, to be named the CONSTITUTION, is given to the shipyard in Boston, Massachusetts. She was named after the historic American document and both the document and the ship have proven to be resilient symbols of America's strength, courage, and liberty.
Having remained part of the U.S. Navy since her launching day, the CONSTITUTION is today the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world. She has been repaired through the years to her full glory and retired to Boston, where she remains today, beginning duty as "America's Ship"-representing our proud Naval heritage and all those who have fought so gallantly to preserve America's freedom.
In 1997 she sailed under her own power for the first time in 116 years outside of Boston Harbor and six of her sails were used.
SHIPPING CHARGE SHOWN IS FOR THE LOWER 48 STATES ONLY.
THIS IS NOT A TOY AND MUST BE KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
