A three-master with billowing sails, ready to set out to sea from your desk.
A tall ship with three masts, its sails carved in wood as if filled by the wind, with its figurehead and its anchor. It goes together without glue, piece by piece, following illustrated instructions.
A wooden model ship kit that snaps together without glue
You pop the parts out of their sheets, then assemble them one step at a time: the hull, the deck, the masts, and finally the sails with their star-shaped cutouts. Easy if you've already built a kit, and completely doable as a first build if you take your time. The result: a detailed sailing ship, from bow to sails, ready to set on a shelf as is.
Who's it for? A first big ship without diving into a 600-piece kit. A gift for anyone who loves sailing, sea stories or beautiful models.
