This exhausting manoeuvre was repeated until a squall produced enough wind to place the ship out of harm's way. The action was captured, magnificently, by artist Julian O. Davidson in a painting on display in the Museum. Now the Museum has recreated in in this festive and exciting watch. Quartz watch with limited 2 year warranty. The board is about 10 inches long and about four inches wide and is made of a rich walnut finished wood.
Pegs are silver and gold tone metal and store neatly in the board's underside.
From Barlow Designs. This paperweight can hold down a fair number of papers and is colorful enough to make even the blandest desk just a little more cheerful. The design, USS Constitution under sail, passing before Boston Light, is done as scrimshaw, using a modern day synthetic ivory. Unlike most scrimshaw, this piece uses a new method, which lends soft blues and other colors to the traditional black and white of the medium. To match the handsomeness of the paperweight is this equally handsome keepsake box.
