Wasa Museum Quality Replica Ship
|
|
|
The Wasa of 1628 was
the most ornately
decorated vessel of
her time. She was
commissioned by the
King of Sweden and
was this country's
finest warship.
During construction,
the King insisted
that the ship be
fitted with a second
row of cannon. This
made it top-heavy and
she sunk just 20
minutes after her
launch. She was
raised from the ocean
in 1956 and now
resides, fully
restored, in the
Stockholm Naval
Museum.
47" long x 17" Wide x
43" High (1:55 scale)
Requires hundreds of
hours to build from
scratch (not from a
model kit) by our
master artisans.
Plank on frame
construction (a
painstaking process
where each individual
plank is added to the
hull one at a time).
Built with rare, high
quality woods such as
light ebony, rosewood
and blackwood.
Handpainted the
colors of the actual
Wasa
The model rests
perfectly on a large
wood base between
four arched dolphins.
No plastic fittings
To build this ship,
extensive research
was done using
various sources such
as museums, drawings,
copies of original
plans and photos of
the actual ship.
