Description

Product Description
This Exclusive Edition of the H.M.S. Victory, Adm. Horatio Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, is now available as a museum-quality, FULLY ASSEMBLED model. This is an "Exclusive Edition" where the model has a unique serial number etched into the hull, which allows us to identify production date, material used and all other production information of a model. Master craftsmen using historical photographs, drawings or original plans meticulously handcraft these highly detailed wood models from scratch. They are built to scale with high-grade wood such as: western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany. They are 100% hand built individually using plank-on-frame construction method and are similar to the building of actual ships. Each model requires hundreds of hours to finish and must go through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop.

This amazing replica of the H.M.S. Victory model features:

• 3 decks and 3 ferocious rows of metal cannons on each side of the ship
• The front bowsprit and 3 large masts are connected securely using advanced rigging and lines painstakingly knotted and fastened by hand
• Each yard has an attached hand-stitched rolled-up sails made of fine linen
• Metal anchors and a wooden rudder are visible on the front and rear of the ship
• On the deck, there are authentic hand-built lifeboats with ribs and planks, stationed metal cannons, metal steering wheels, wooden crane, captain's dining and sleeping cabin, and many other handcrafted ornaments
• There is also an exquisite detailed admiral's quarter on the stern with beautiful metal lanterns, handcrafted brass statues and ornaments, and a wooden flag pole

This model comes standard with a solid wood base and brass nameplate.

Comments about Old Modern Handicrafts HMS Victory Exclusive Edition Ship Model:

If you like ship models (and I do) then this model is outstanding. Was concerned about the size but turned out to be just right for a library table I had in mind for it. I do not want a case for it and was pleased to see they recommended cleaning it after arrival using compressed air (cans used for computers work great). It came very well packed but admit it was bit of a chore getting it out of the crate and set up. Had to call and find out that one of the instructions (about removing screws) no longer applied to recent packing. Before purchasing I had called their toll free number to ask questions and they were very helpful. Same with this issue. To find their website you need to google "old modern handicrafts" and under contact they have their toll free number. Oddly it is not on any of the material enclosed. They suggested having a friend help remove the model but I found it was easy enough to do by myself once I had both sides free to spread apart. Lots of bits of foam packing material once I had model free but found vacuumed with shop vac (other than model) just fine and wet towel picked up other small bits. I found I had to use a hammer (very carefully) in getting the crating loose in places and there are any number of sharp points on the crating material to be careful with. Unfortunately because of the way this was crated it would be difficult if not impossible to recrate it to move somewhere. I had hoped to do that for when my son wants this in his home. I may yet save the box since I have room and perhaps it could be recrated with modifications at some point. Overall I feel that this model is excellent value and can recommend it.
