Why Us?

At THE Ship In a Bottle, there is a deeply embedded passion for continuing the traditional arts of the sailor. Jim, owner of THE Ship In a Bottle and talented model builder, is himself an 'old salt' who spent many years in the navy. His years of research and skills performing these time honored traditions have distinguished THE Ship In a Bottle from other companies. Here you can shop with confidence for you are buying true art created by a veteran sailor.

Ship model building may be a dying art. Fewer and fewer hobby stores cater to the ship model builder. Why? Who knows for certain but we believe that in this age of digital hand-held devices, the passion once there for young hobbyists to build these beautiful ship models simply isn't there any more. You may have noticed that there really aren't that many models of true quality and detail on the market. Adding to the problem, many of the ship models you may find are often incorrectly branded "museum quality." Caveat Emptor - Let the Buyer Beware. The "museum quality" brand is over-used and in most cases, very inaccurate to say the least. Our models are some of the finest available in any case!

For those of you who have ever admired a beautiful wooden ship model and wanted one for your own or for that perfect gift, look no further. You'll be glad you shopped here.
