A Finely Made Scale Model of a Middle Eastern Sailing Boat in Silver

This fine model has been superbly hand made in solid high grade silver which is not marked but has been tested. It was most likely produced by a European silversmith and is a high quality individual model depicting a Middle Eastern 19th century sailing Dhow. It is of a good size and it has great eye appeal with its beautifully crafted hull with a detailed handrail around its rear deck and a working hinged rudder. The vessel is set with its sail raised and its anchor is drawn. It is displayed on a finely figured mahogany stand. It is in good condition. The weight is 421 grams or 14.75 ounces.

Size of the model only, not including stand height 24cm x width 23 x depth 8cm

Circa 1900

After forty years of shop keeping and maintaining beautiful showrooms, which have been regularly open six days a week, Robert and Wendy have now taken a slightly different approach to their business. Having sold their retail premises, the antique business is now fully online. The picture framing service has ceased to operate because of moving online.

Customers can rest assured that the long-established dealership is continuing to run in an exceedingly professional way, selling genuine and high-quality items which are guaranteed to please the most discerning collector, decorator or homeowner.

All items will be personally hand packaged to a high standard. Small items are extensively wrapped using the best materials and are often double boxed. Items are then shipped with DHL or Royal Mail fully insured and often with next day delivery. Larger items would be personally delivered or sent with a specialist antique delivery firm, or for outside the U.K, a professional shipping company.
