Price On Request The Cutty Sark is a British clipper ship. Built on the Clyde in 1869 for the Jock Willis shipping line, she was one of the last tea clippers to be built and one of the fastest, coming at the end of a long period of design development which halted as sailing ships gave way to steam propulsion. Cutty Sark is one of three ships in London on the Core Collection of the National Historic Ships Register (the nautical equivalent of a Grade 1 Listed Building) – alongside HMS Belfast and SS Robin. She is one of only three remaining original composite construction (wooden hull on an iron frame) clipper ships from the nineteenth century in part or whole, the others being the City of Adelaide, awaiting transportation to Australia for preservation, and the beached skeleton of Ambassador of 1869 near Punta Arenas, Chile. The ship was badly damaged by fire on 21 May 2007 while undergoing conservation. The vessel has been restored and was reopened to the public on 25 April 2012. ************************************************************* Highlights about this Cutty Sark model ship:• This model ship is entirely handmade by skilled and experienced craftsmen, using the plank on frame construction method• No kits are use• Anchors, guns, decorations, and other intricate details sculpted of metal• Meticulously sewn sails, keep the sails from wrinkle• Use high-quality wood such as rosewood, ebony, black wood, mahogany wood...., timbers are after process step of pre-construction.• This Cutty Sark model ship is built on scale by the original plan, then drawn up and painted by actual photographs to ensure the best accuracy.
