About the Item

The many holes in this large 7' model boat served a specific purpose; it was used while fishing as a type of oversized creel to keep fish alive. The large size makes it a unique decorative statement piece perfect for a home near water. Note the hand-hewn elements, sections screwed together, pencil grafting, and lid that fits snuggly in top center that all combine to create the intriguing appeal of this unusual find. Solid and stable, any scratches, cracks, dings, etc. are reflective of age and do not detract from the attraction nor function of this unique decorative accent that could even serve as a low coffee table in a lake house. Please refer to professional photos for clear understanding of color, condition and details; photo lighting, individual monitor display and home lighting may all impact how item is viewed.
