Description
Fabulous French Prisoner of War bone ship in case dating to around 1815. English flagged with 46 cast brass cannon. From the personal collection of Norman Napier-Boyd who wrote on the subject of model ships.
Made from the bones of the rations served to them so beef or Mutton, the rigging often a combination of silk and human hair.
A wonderful, collectible thing.
