Description from the seller

5-Master “Preussen” – XXL ship model in a bottle – 52 cm

Wonderful and impressive handcrafted ship model of the 5-masted “Preussen,” rendered in a bottle. With an impressive length of no less than 52 cm, this is an exceptionally large specimen with a very detailed execution.

The “Preussen” was a legendary German five-masted full-rig ship and belongs to the most recognizable large sailing ships in maritime history. This model beautifully reflects the characteristic lines of the vessel, with much attention to rigging, masts, sails and other nautical details.

Details
Type: 5-master “Preussen”
Construction: ship model in bottle
Bottle length: approx. 52 cm
Extremely detailed craftsmanship
Impressive XXL version
A decorative and striking object for lovers of ship models and maritime history
Condition
The model is generally in good condition. There is a small defect at the cap: the wax no longer sits neatly over the cap. This is clearly visible upon closer inspection, but does not detract from the impressive appearance and detailing of the ship model. This is of course relatively easy to remedy.

A particularly large and decorative ship model that forms a beautiful focal point in a collection, study, office or maritime interior.
