Description from the seller

Elegant Nautical Shadow Box – "Goélette de Croisière" Half-Hull Model – Early 20th Century Style

A sophisticated and high-quality nautical decorative panel celebrating the "Golden Age" of yachting. This 3D shadow box features a finely crafted half-hull model of a classic cruising schooner (Goélette de Croisière), a design tradition used by shipbuilders since the 18th century to study hull symmetry and hydrodynamics.

The Model: A hand-finished wooden half-hull with a rich polished finish, showcasing the elegant lines and deep keel characteristic of early 20th-century racing yachts.
Visuals: The background includes two vintage-style monochrome photographs of classic yachts under full sail, flanking a central steering wheel (helm) emblem.

Elegant gold lettering reads "Goélette de Croisière – Vers 1900", anchoring the piece in the Belle Époque maritime era.

The piece is set in a robust, high-quality wooden frame with a mahogany-style finish, further embellished with polished brass corner protectors, giving it an authentic maritime office or yacht club aesthetic.

Excellent vintage condition. The wood and brass show a beautiful patina that enhances its character. The glass and internal elements are well-preserved (please refer to the high-resolution photos for details).

This is an ideal statement piece for a maritime collector's study, a seaside villa, or as a sophisticated gift for sailing enthusiasts.

Dimensions : 64 cm × 49 cm × 7 cm

The product will be professionally packed and sent safely to your address by local post.
