Model ship - A large, presumably pond yacht

A vintage, presumably pond yacht, in which obvious signs of age can be discovered, but what a lovely, well-worn look. The cotton sails show wear with holes, the tall bamboo mast has become bent, there’s a missing section on the foredeck, a square patch is still visible, wear marks on the deck — in short, enough to reveal its age, yet nonetheless, and precisely because of that, an attractive image. There is no stand for it to rest on. In short, a wonderful vintage ship, and it will be sent by registered mail.
