Rainbow 1934 Half Hull Model Ship

Rainbow 1934 Half Hull Model Ship - The Art of making half hulls is as old as ship building itself. Half Hulls were crafted by ship builders to give three-dimensional shape to their hull designs.

Crafted in mahogany and tropical hard woods, the hulls are assembled one at a time, using traditional plank-on-bulkhead modelling techniques.

After the bulkheads are laid and the hull lines trued, the hulls are planked with individual wooden stripes to form a smooth silhouette. The model is then sanded, hand painted and varnished to a mirror-like finish.

They are then mounted on ready to hang wooden plaque, each is complete with an engraved brass nameplate. Their lines are exceptionally beautiful. Intricately detailed. Truly, a striking collector's item. Packaging is extemely secure to allow for a safe passage. Compliments any nautical decor. Exquisite gift for the salty collector.
