Normandie Ship Model

Ship shape!  Normandie was arguably the greatest passenger liner ever built.  She was launched in 1932 and was a design marvel with state of the art engineering and the most beautiful interiors, fixtures and accommodations France could devise.  She was a work of art.  This sensational hand built Normandie model is a folk art marvel.  It was completely crafted by hand by Ted Gelinas and is highly detailed.  The custom glass case has a mirrored back and chrome frame.  An absolutely unique show stopping centerpiece for the cottage, beach, city or country home.  If you are looking for a pair of ship models, the Lusitania is available in Colorado or online.  https://www.1stdibs.com/furniture/more-furniture-collectibles/collectibles-curiosities/models-miniatures/large-hand-built-ship-model-rms-lusitania/id-f_8753873/
