This is an exclusive edition of the USS Constitution, where the model is uniquely identified by a laser cut hull serial number. 100% hand built from scratch using “plank on frame” construction method. Copper plated hull covered with fiberglass for reinforcement. Without this fiberglass, the copper plates will fall off as time goes by. Hundreds of hours is required to finish a model. Completed models contain thousands of details created by our skillful master craftsmen. Made of finest wood like Rosewood, Mahogany, Teak and other exotic tropical wood. Chrome and brass fittings and ornaments constitute the excellence of our models. Extensive research through original plans and pictures make our models authentic. Each model goes through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop. Just the perfect gift for home or office decorator, boat enthusiast or passionate collector.
