Description

This gorgeous boat was commissioned by a special customer as a gift. The completed boat stands 24 inches tall, and 22 inches long by 5 inches wide. It is a one of a kind handmade fully rigged stained glass ketch with two cabins, 4 sails, a lifeboat, a winch, and other details. More recently, this boat was also commissioned to be displayed in a prominent Las Vegas Hotel after renovations. I can make a similar but not identical boat, as each boat is unique at the time of making.

Please note, this boat is built when you order it, so there will be a delay in shipping. It could take a month to 6 weeks, but sometimes its possible to build it in less time during slow season. It can be built any colour you like, including white, red, green, and baby blue, my standard colours now. I developed the unique design for this particular boat, and can customize it in many ways for you. Just ask and i will do my best to build the boat any way you like.

To craft this boat, I used the tiffany or copper foil method of stained glass, and three dimensional techniques. I hand cut the glass for this boat from rich royal blue streaky stained glass for the sails, transluscent dark blue water glass for the deck and keel, opaque white glass for the cabins, deck fittings and hull. I built the details out of copper wire hand coated with silver solder, and then bent and soldered each piece of wire into rails, helm, anchor, winch. I used fine chain for the winch, and copper pipe for the masts. I then suspended the sails on tiny copper rings from the masts.

Altogether, this lovely boat is a work of art, handcrafted specially for the person you know that loves and admires sailing, sailboats, or the sailing lifestyle.
