Description
Immerse yourself in the majesty of the high seas with the Christian Radich, a stunningly crafted Norwegian full-rigged ship model that will transport you to a bygone era. This magnificent masterpiece stands 37 inches long, 11 inches wide, and 30 inches high, making it a show-stopping centerpiece for any home or office. Master craftsmen have meticulously hand-built this model using historical photographs, drawings, or original plans, ensuring unparalleled accuracy and attention to detail.

The Christian Radich's rich history dates back to 1937, when it was launched as a sail-training ship, named after a patron of the Christiania Schoolship Association. With its impressive two-tone white and blue hull, plank-on-frame construction, and three decks, this model is a true marvel of craftsmanship. The front bowsprit and three large masts are connected securely using advanced rigging and lines painstakingly knotted and fastened by hand, while each yard features attached hand-stitched unfurled sails made of fine linen.

Every aspect of this model has been meticulously crafted, from the metal anchors and wooden rudder to the intricately detailed deck, complete with metal cranes, authentic hand-built lifeboats, wooden barrels, wooden light beacons, and wooden windlass. The crowning glory is the wooden cabin, adorned with other exquisite ornaments that showcase the exceptional skill of the master craftsmen. This model comes complete with a solid wood base and a brass nameplate, making it a truly regal addition to any room.

The Christian Radich's storied past includes a transatlantic voyage to New York for the 1939 World's Fair, as well as a harrowing experience during World War II, when it was taken over by German occupation forces. However, after extensive repairs, it resumed sail training in 1947 and went on to become a regular participant in tall ships races and events across Europe and North America. Today, this magnificent model serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of traditional sail and the Christian Radich's significant contribution to the world of sail training.

Whether you're a seasoned sailor, a passionate collector, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of traditional craftsmanship, the Christian Radich model is sure to captivate and inspire. Its impressive scale, exquisite detail, and rich history make it an unparalleled addition to any home or office, perfect for sparking conversations and evoking a sense of adventure and nostalgia.

Display this magnificent model proudly in your home or office, and let the Christian Radich's grandeur transport you to a bygone era of maritime splendor. With its solid wood base and brass nameplate, this model is a true masterpiece that will be cherished for generations to come.
