Royal Louis
£582.43
The three-decker ROYAL LOUIS of 1780, with its 122 cannons, was one of the leading first-rate ships of the line in the French Royal Navy. It represented a high point in shipbuilding development.
In 1792 the ship was renamed “Républicain” and took part in the Battle of Ushant, where she was almost completely destroyed. However, the British did not succeed in capturing the ship, allowing it to return to Rochefort.
On December 24, 1794, the ship ran aground while leaving the port of Brest, and the wreck was destroyed a few days later in a storm.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the Norske Love.
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.
