British frigate, 18th century An elegant frigate, designed for the British Fleet by Chapman at the end of the 18th century. Like the original, our model is armed with 24 guns on the open fighting deck and 8 guns below, all complete with gun mountings and wheels. The sleek and tapered line of the hull and the impressive masts make this an extremely striking and beautiful ship. The box contains a variety of precious woods all, as usual, “pre-cut”. The double planking construction permits the gun hatches to be opened by our patented procedure .
