My knowledge of naval architecture is limited , but my guess is this ship model is North African or Mediterranean style--it has a hand carved hull-good condition-couple port hole insets missing--made in the 1930s and restored later-sails and rigging are newer than hull--26 inches high with woven basket crows nest-20 inches wide-has elaborate rudder system and a strange device on prow mast--unusual design
