Caesar Ship Model, Julius Caesar Ship, Roman Ship, Roman Warship, Bireme, Wooden Ship Model, Handmade Ship, Antique Ship, Nautical Decor

🖋️ Here we present to you a truly spectacular piece of our "Nautical & Maritime" family and more specifically a vintage historical ship model back from 27 BC. We are talking about none other than the legendary "Caesar" Roman warship which is completely handmade of wood, brass, cotton (with some polyester accents) while at the same time she is decorated exactly as she was built during the early Roman Empire, resulting to the ultimate showstopper for every room and every occasion. While it is the Roman legion that leaps to mind when discussing Rome’s military might, the navy also played a vital role during the later Republic and early Empire. The Roman warships were fearsome weapons and a major factor in the expansion of the Roman Empire. The ships were powered by sails and oars, and armed with the spears and swords of the soldiers on board as well as protection was provided by many removable shields along the sides of the craft. A unique "proboscus" on the front of the ship was a reinforced ram often used to spear enemy ships. In case you wish to know more, please scroll down to the "DID YOU KNOW?" section of our store. So without further ado, the attention to detail pattern is all over the place as the colors, the texture and the whole craftsmanship of this piece are literally a piece of art and it will immediately seduce you in every possible way as it looks like it came straight out of some historical Roman fairytale. Unfortunately such pieces are really hard to describe in just a few lines. Their impeccable beauty along with their one a kind artistry are absolutely priceless.
The perfect addition for every surface and most definitely every home and office, that will instantly upgrade the aesthetic of the entire room by providing a genuine maritime aura to the whole atmosphere.
In any case one photo is worth one thousand words, so please take a moment to see from a closer look, her outstanding beauty!
We must not forget to mention that this piece is NOT a ready to assemble kit and it is handmade from scratch.
Handmade approximately in 1980's.

Ideal for home or office decor.

In case you were looking for a truly unique addition for your collection, you just found a remarkable masterpiece!

The perfect gift either for you or your beloved ones!

📜 DID YOU KNOW?
While it is the Roman legion that leaps to mind when discussing Rome’s military might, the navy also played a vital role during the later Republic and early Empire. The early Romans were not a seafaring nation, and the early Republic did not have an effective navy. That changed with the First Punic War (264-241 BC) against the maritime city of Carthage. By 256, Rome had built a navy of 330 ships. Octavian became Caesar Augustus, the Republic became the Empire, and the navy remained an important part of the Roman military system during Augustus’s rule. The two major fleets were based in Italy. The Misene was based in the Bay of Naples with 10,000 men patrolling the western regions of the Italian coast and the Mediterranean. The Ravennate had 5000 men patrolling the Adriatic Sea and the eastern Mediterranean. There were 8 provincial fleets, some of which were based on rivers: Alexandrina, Syriaca, Moesica, Pannonica, Lauriacensis, Pontica, Germania and Britannica. The Roman warships were fearsome weapons and a major factor in the expansion of the Roman Empire. The ships were powered by sails and oars, and armed with the spears and swords of the soldiers on board. Protection was provided by many removable shields along the sides of the craft. A unique "proboscus" on the front of the ship was a reinforced ram often used to spear enemy ships. Whent an enemy ship remained skewered to the Roman ship, the soldiers leap aboard and engage in hand-to-hand combat.
