Saint Esprit Ship Model

Details

Experience the grandeur and history of naval warfare with our exquisite replica of the Saint Esprit, a formidable warship of the French Navy. Named after the Holy Spirit, this majestic vessel was completed in 1765 in Brest and played a significant role in several naval battles.

Our true-to-scale replica measures 96cm in length, 23cm in width, and 80cm in height, capturing the imposing presence of the original Saint Esprit. With its commanding length of about 60 meters and armed with 80 guns, the Saint Esprit served as a flagship in numerous battles, showcasing the might of the French Navy.

In 1794, the ship was renamed Scipion and bravely fought in the naval battle of the 13th Prairial. Despite sustaining severe damage, the Saint Esprit continued to serve until it met its fate, sinking in poor condition amidst rough seas a year later.

Handcrafted with meticulous precision, our model embodies the artistry of traditional frame construction with hull planking. Exotic woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood, or mango are expertly sculpted to create a stunning and noble masterpiece.

Every detail, from the gleaming cannons to the intricate portholes, anchors, dials, and wheels, is crafted from high-quality metals such as brass and chrome, ensuring authenticity and historical accuracy.

The sails, available in both open and rolled configurations, are expertly crafted from fine cloth or silk, while the wooden masts and solid cotton thread ropes add to the authenticity of this remarkable replica.
