Exhibition model boat

Handmade display model of the Kruzenshtern, a four-masted Russian barque, one of the largest in the world, which serves as a training ship.

The sailing ship is superbly crafted in every meticulous detail. The material and hand craftsmanship make the item very solid and durable, ready to survive through multiple generations like objects of a bygone era.

The attention to detail is evident in a rather rare feature: the ship contains a liquid in the hull that serves to simulate the waves of the ocean when you rock the ship in your hands. The result is a very evocative and captivating effect.

The condition is excellent, except for a small defect on the bow and on one sail.

Purchased in Saint Petersburg.
