Half-hull of shipyard. Hull of a three-masted schooner, planked on the frame. Late 18th - early 19th century. Open presentation case to be placed (four feet) or to be hung. Front with pediment in cuba mahogany. Dimensions of the box 88 x 41 x 18,5 cm. Length HT of the shell 71 cm. Late 18th - Early 19th century. Note : Real museum object. It is one of the oldest half-hulls we know. The hull is bordered and is not carved in solid wood (solid or reconstituted as the tradition wants). It is all the more magnificent for that.
