Ship model of a Chinese sailing vessel / merchant ship (junk)

This model of a Chinese merchant ship has three sails. The hull is built on a heavy keel beam, with a full but graceful shape, ends in an approximately triangular bow. At the stern there is a similar construction, but it is intersected by a narrow bun. A row of deck hatches is in the middle of the entire length of the deck. The very high bulwark protrudes in front of the bow as two wings, between which a heavy anchor pivot is attached. The bulwark forms a high cabin superstructure on the stern with a separated and high-lying deck. Three pole masts carry sloping Chinese sails. The small mizzen mast is located on the port side near the railing of the high aft deck. There is an empty sailing keel with perforations, which would increase the sailing skills. Dimensions of the model (lxwxh): 118 x 36,5 x 105,3 cm.
