AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This unique bar, crafted from an authentic XL ship's engine block, makes a powerful statement in any industrial interior. The robust steel with its weathered patina tells a story of craftsmanship and history, combined with a wood top. It includes six sturdy industrial bar stools, perfectly matching the bar's character. A true eye-catcher for a loft, restaurant, office, or man cave.
This isn't just a piece of furniture, it's a conversation piece with character.

Originating from a Chinese freighter, originally good for several hundred horsepower.

Alang, India
When one of the world's largest ships reaches the end of its useful life, it often ends up at Alang, India. The ships run aground at high tide and are then slowly dismantled with torches and crowbars. The steel extracted from the ships helps fuel the construction industry in these developing countries. Picture 5 shows a satellite image of Alang Beach in March 2017. The images show old ships disappearing, new ones arriving, and the pace of deconstruction.

This Xclusive Item will be shipped very well packed. Furthermore, fragile tape will be placed on the package and a track code to track your package is available after sending out.
