Ship Photograph signed Large in Frame
|
There isn’t much to say about this fabulous photograph of a ship sailing through high seas. It is an odd
shape and size measuring overall 19 ½”Wide x 34 ½”High and the sight size is 14 ½” x 29 ½”. It has a
kind of eerie feel as far as the subject and color. It is signed on the bottom lower right. It is in very good
condition – it is in a wonderful frame that appears to be maybe burled walnut or figured walnut with a
gold gilt border. It is very subdued looking – very masculine. Great picture! ...

Ship Model Varuna Norwich Antique Hand Made
|
Wonderful 19th century sailing ship model called the Varuna of Norwich. This is a massive model of
wonderful proportion. There is so much detail it is kind of hard to describe. What I can tell you is this –
the paint which is red and black appears to be original and of course it is worn in some spots. The ship’
s name appears on the front right side, the back right side and the very back of the model which reads
– The Varuna of Norwich. In fact the name is on all four corners and the back. The ...

18th Century Mini Furniture Still Bank
|
Here is something quite spectacular - I have never in my career ever seen anything like this one. It is a
miniature bow front chest dating from the 18th Century. It is mahogany with highly figured birds eye
maple veneers and a lighter color banded inlay. The drawer pulls are made of whale ivory. The back as
I hope you can see is moveable. It is on hinges and I believe that this miniature chest did start out as a
bank and it looks like it has had a little bit of restoration in those areas like ...

Carved Whale Bone Box

Super nice box dating from the early 1900’s. A very unique nautical item. Carved Whale Bone in a
basket weave design resembling the Nantucket basket styles. On the top of the box is a carved whale.
This is quite the little treasure, the box is made in sections, that’s due to the width of the bone. The
basket weave is carved with fine detail & the outside of the box has a mellow surface color. The
condition is excellent & it measures 3 ½” x 2 ¼”x ¾”. Any nautical should be delighted with this ...

neck. The curls in her hair are just delightful & her facial features are beautiful & so life like ...

19th Century Two Mast Schooner Model
|
Black & Red Boat model. Here is a super 19th Century Two Mast Schooner – a great item for on top of
your fireplace mantel. The schooner is hand made and I believe it to be the original paint but I’m not

ships wheel which is carved wood, it has hatches, and everything you would expect a schooner to have.
The anchor is on a pulley chain and is attached to the front side. This model is ...

Ships Bell on Stand - Nautical
|
Nice Early Ships Bell on stand. This is quite a spectacular piece for the nautical connoisseur. The bell
is made of a silvered bell metal. It’s no doubt off of a ship but it doesn’t say which one. There is an early
hand forged anchor that is strung with wire on to the holder. I believe that it was original tied around the
end of the clapper. The surface condition of the bell is a little bit dirty. The bell is mounted on a
contemporary hard wood stand and is not original to the bell at all, but ...
