Striking vintage model of a sleek schooner that is artfully handcrafted and finely detailed. The SS Dolores is a schooner with a gaff-rigged foresail and a Bermuda-rigged main. She also has a fore-topsail, a jib, and an outer jib. The sails are original with a little wear to show that this model was probably enjoyed on the water. The gloss finish has a wonderful shine that shows off the detailed inlaid deck and original paint. With her vibrant red keel resting in a custom stand, she is a great display and conversation starter that can be versatile to decorate any room especially an office, family/great room, bedroom, or games room. Mid 20th Century Dimensions: 42" L x 9" W x 39" H History: A schooner is a sailing vessel that, in its pure form, originated at Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1713–1714. It is a fore-and-aft-rigged craft, originally small (fifty to one hundred tons), with two masts, designed for coastwise trade. (source: encyclopedia.com) Condition: Very good condition consistent with age including some discoloration of the sail fabric. We have maintained the original sails for authenticity despite some tears in the front. Show more
