The Mississippi is a 3,778-kilometer-long river in the United States. Along its course, it flows through eight U.S. states.
The era of steam navigation began around 1810, when large quantities of freight and passengers were first transported on the river. The first paddle steamer was already operating scheduled service between New Orleans and Natchez from 1812. Cotton in particular was then transported to New Orleans for trade with Europe.
The steamer became famous through the stories of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the King of Mississippi.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional plank-on-frame construction with hull planking.
Among other things, exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, 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 decorations (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 strong cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be retensioned 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.
