Description from the seller

Berlin – Brandenburg Frigate – 17th Century

Beautiful handmade model ship of the historical Berlin, a 17th-century Brandenburg frigate. This impressive scale model is entirely made of wood and richly finished with authentic rigging, wooden decks and classic brass details.

Why this model is rare:

The Berlin is not a mass-produced ship like the famous Victory or Enterprise.
Only a few building kits of this ship exist (usually from Euromodel or smaller German manufacturers).
As a result, finished models of this quality are very scarce on the market.

Origin: Private collection.
Carefully assembled by an experienced model builder who has invested 830 hours in it.

Due to its size and fragility, the item must be picked up in Weert, Netherlands.
