This beautiful entirely handmade light blue glass sailboat features extremely rare baby blue streaky glass sails made using the copper foil method and lead came for the deck and mast. It is a scale model taken from several different boats, and detail has been added using copper wire. This style is called a cutter, and is gaff rigged. I have cut and soldered a steering wheel/helm, boom, strut, cables, ties, rope coils, portholes for the cabin, and hatches.
This gorgeous glass boat is the perfect gift for the hard to buy for husband, wife or sailor. It makes a lovely anniversary gift and is one of a kind. I have cut and soldered a steering wheel/helm, boom, strut, cables, ties, rope coils, portholes for the cabin, and hatches. The boat makes a wonderful gift for the special person in your life, or for anyone dreaming of sailing into a new life, or celebrating a well-earned retirement.
Dimensions
The boat is about 10″ tall, by 7″ long, by 4″ wide.
Shipping
Each of my pieces is made by hand, with loving attention to detail, then packed with care and shipped as soon as possible. However, handmade process is slower than machine, and can take anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks to complete. Please let me know if this is a gift or needs to arrive at a specific date, so that I can make it faster, and ship it sooner. Unless a shipping upgrade is requested, the boat will ship Standard Mail, which is 6 to 10 business days.
