Many model fans, or those just entering the modeling market, want to display models like these, but are unable to do so because of the time and skill it takes to build one, or the cost of buying a pre-assembled one. Micro-Mark offers a solution to those model fans by delivering fully-assembled decorative models to your door at a very reasonable price as compared to scratch-built models. The manufacturer states: "This is a fully assembled model of the famous USS Constitution ,"Old Ironsides," as part of an exclusive edition where the hull is laser cut, and is issued a unique serial number. The model is 100% hand-built from scratch using the "plank on frame" construction method. Our master craftsmen have spent more than 100 hours to finish it. One bold feature that makes this model stand out is the art of wood use. Rosewood, mahogany, teak and other exotic woods are carefully selected to accent each part of the model. ¦details include metal anchors and cannons, crow's nest, rigging, rolled sails, wood inlay hull, inlay deck, a decorated stern and much more. No plastic parts! Comes on a solid wood base, with metal nameplate." This ship is quite striking, as you can see in our detailed images. Remarkably, the model arrives fully assembled with packing that is well-designed for long distance shipping. If you want an impressive decorative model at a reasonable price, this pre-assembled ship is for you. Length: 37"; Height: 30" Width: 10-1/2"
