'SCRIMSHANKER STYLE CARVINGS.'

Whales are Carved from English Hardwood 'Ilex Aquifolium,' Hollywood. The Crewmen are carved out of the same wood .
As Early as 1864 Harpooning Boats had Prow Mounted Harpoon Canons , some firing Exploding Headed Harpoons , and some with Steam Powered Whinches . The Days of the Old 'Nantucket Sleighride ' were coming to an End .
Oars are Made from 'Sweetenia Mahogoni,' Peruvian Mahogany . The Harpoons are all Victorian or Vintage Darning Needles.
The Harpooning Canons are Bog Oak and Brass and Alloy Tubing . Lookout Crewmen have brass tubing Telescopes . The ropes are Vintage '3 Shells Dewhursts Machine Twist.'

Due to the nature of using Natural Materials sometimes inevitably there may be some colour differences and possibly other oddities , knots little growth marks , small anomalies which are all a possibility when using Natural Materials.

All Carvings are done entirely by hand using only Antique and Vintage hand tools, No Blasphemus Power Tools have been used here.

Please Study Photographs carefully as they are part of the condition report.
Thankyou for looking .
