Thermopylae Limited 50"
SOLD FULLY ASSEMBLED - THIS IS NOT A MODEL SHIP KIT 44" long x 11" Wide x 27" High (1:58 scale) Includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity signed by HMS Founder and Master Builder Richard Norris as only 10 will ever be made. Requires hundreds of hours to build from scratch (not from a model kit) by our master artisans. Plank on frame construction (a painstaking process where each individual wooden plank is added to the hull one at a time). Built with rare high quality woods such as southwest cherry white orchis wood birch maple and rosewood. The model rests perfectly on a large wood base between four arched dolphins (marble base pictured). Masterfully stitched canvas sails. No plastic fittings. Amazing deck details. To build this ship extensive research was done using various sources such as museums drawings copies of original plans and photos of the actual ship.
