FAQs

The ships wheel was introduced in the early 18th century to replace the maritime whipstaff, allowing helmsmen to exert greater mechanical advantage when steering larger sailing vessels.

Traditional ships wheels were primarily built from dense hardwoods such as teak, mahogany, or oak to withstand harsh marine environments, and fitted with brass or bronze hubs and outer bands.

Authentic pieces often exhibit genuine wear patterns, hand-turned spokes, brass components with natural patina, and traditional joinery methods rather than modern machine production.

A large wooden helm can be mounted as a focal point on a plain wall or displayed on a custom stand, pairing well with coastal or industrial interior schemes.

Preservation involves applying a microcrystalline wax to protect the wood from drying out and gently cleaning the brass components without stripping their historic oxidised patina.
