Scale: Unknown. Model of four frames of a warship made entirely of wood which has been stained and varnished a mahogany-brown colour, and metal fittings.

The model shows the position and fixing of the keel and deadwood. The keel section is mounted directly to a wooden rectangular baseboard with bevelled edges, of a colour similar to the model itself.
