Handcrafted SS United States Cruise Ship Model
Handcrafted SS United States Cruise Ship Model. The SS United States, built in 1952 for the United States Lines, is the largest ocean liner constructed entirely in the U.S. It holds the record for the fastest transatlantic trip westward. Skilled craftsmen create detailed wooden models of the ship using materials like red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany. These 100% hand-built models are made using the plank-on-frame method and are sized to match the original ship. Each model features intricate details like a painted chimney, handmade lifeboats, and deck elements like metal ladders and railings. Mounted on a sturdy base with a brass nameplate, these models make perfect gifts for boat enthusiasts or collectors. The SS United States dominated transatlantic passenger service until 1969 and is currently in Philadelphia, awaiting its future.
