Features

  • The --ship-- model ship measures 32"L x 11"W x 29"H.

  • All of our models are shipped fully assembled and ready to be displayed.

  • This historic model ship comes with a high quality, conditioned wood base complete with its own brass name plate.

  • We rely on extensive research -- various pictures, original plans, drawings and digital imaging -- to build our tall ship models to scale.

  • The highest quality rare woods (e.g. ebony, rosewood, blackwood, mahogany, jackwood and sycamore) are used to construct all of our wood model boats. They are subjected to specific seasoning procedures to ensure that models will withstand severe climate changes and will never warp or split.

  • The detailed, hand-stitched sails of every wood model ship we offer are constructed of fine linen. The detailed riggings and linings are also of linen, and are painstakingly fastened by hand.

  • Ornaments and decorations (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels among other details) are sculpted of brass, chrome and other metals.

  • Skilled builders and artisans are responsible for the construction of every one of our handcrafted wooden model ships. To create a sturdy, perfectly aligned, built-to-scale masterpiece, each model’s frame and hull have to be precisely assembled. Narrow pieces of wood are cut into individual planks and then fastened one-by-one to the frame of the ship’s hull. When the frame planking is finished, individual pieces of wood are then fastened to the exterior of the hull, finalizing this assiduous process.

  • Each model ship is micro-sanded a number of times to ensure maximal uptake for paint and varnish. Each time the model is micro-sanded, a layer of primer, paint and varnish is applied. This time-consuming re-application and layering process is what gives our models their realistic sheen.

  • Each model ship is inspected at various steps of manufacturing and shipment to ensure the highest quality and the most historical accuracy possible for your investment.
History

The HMS was a tpyical war frigate in the Royal Navy during Admiral Nelson's time. Launched in 1794, the HMS Diana was armed with 38-cannons, and was one of eight frigates in her class. A versatilte ship, used by the British Navy in many ways during the Napoleonic wars, the Diana became a seasoned war-vessel. In 1815, the HMS Diana was sold to the Dutch navy, and in 1816, she was used in a bombarding of the Algiers. She was destroyed in an accident in dry-dock on Jan 16, 1839.
