Beautiful 6.75” x 5.75” x 2.25” vintage dovetailed wooden chest from the Artek “Save the Whale Collection” featuring a faux scrimshaw style top depicting USS Constitution over a Mediterranean map including Gibraltar and Tangier. From the 1980’s.
Produced as a part of the Artek’s conservation-era “Save the Whale Collection,” the faux scrimshaw top reflects an effort to preserve the traditions of maritime scrimshaw art without the use of whale ivory. Includes original paperwork.
