HMS Trincomalee is a frigate built for the Royal Navy in 1817. Alongside HMS Unicorn and USS Constitution, she is the only surviving frigate from the age of sailing warships and the oldest ship in Great Britain still afloat.
Trincomalee belongs to the successful and numerous British Leda-class frigates, of which Trincomalee was one of 15 examples of the original design.
From 1990 to 2002, the ship was extensively restored and currently serves as a museum ship in the historic dock at Hartlepool.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the HMS Trincomalee.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional frame construction with hull planking.
Exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, among others, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model as the finished product.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and painted where intended. The model is then coated with a protective clear varnish.
Ornaments and decorative details (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels …) are made of brass, chrome or other high-quality metals.
The sails are made of fabric or silk, the masts of wood, and the rigging of sturdy cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be tightened at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
