This piece combines sculpture, artistic craftsmanship, and ambient lighting in a particularly original composition. The hull is clad in varnished wood in warm tones, accented with brass trim. The stylized sails, crafted from hammered brass, are adorned with crosses inspired by the Order of Christ, while the finely crafted rigging adds great visual richness to the overall design. The ship is equipped with an electrical system that illuminates its stained-glass portholes. When lit, it casts a soft, warm glow through the cabins and the red, green, and amber side openings, creating a particularly spectacular decorative effect in any interior. Resting on a brass base, this piece can be used both as a mood lamp and as a decorative sculpture. 38 / 9 / 42 cm 1.5 kg
