Item Details

Early 20th Century Scratch build folk-art ship model

Stood on a hand-crafted gesso painted sea effect, which is framed by an ebonised pine base. This is an charming example of an early 20th Century, scratch built folk art ship model. As the photos shows a lot of attention to detail has been made creating this model including removable sections and hand carved lifeboats. With the name FOREST, we guess painted to the rear. Recently uncovered from a private collection in the North of England.
