  Le Superbe Model Ship
SPECIAL EDITION Brass Hull
measures: 41"L x 34"T x 12"WClick here to see detailed photos!
In 1784, Le Superbe was launched from the Brest's shipyards. Three masts, two decks, and an extreme maneuverability due to the know-how of his architect, the famous Jacques Noel Sane. Seven hundred men were necessary for the smooth running of the vessel.The Le Superbe french warship joined Admiral Villaret de Joyeuse's fleet. It was a period of great fights against the British fleet. Le Superbe came to a tragic end being sunk to the bottom of the sea in a storm in 1795. We've brought the Le Superbe french warship to life again with its maze of masts, sails and ropes, and its winged bow shape. A faithful masterpiece of art, beautiful as a sculpture, with a meter of length which will make the heart of history and sea lovers beat.
