Greco Roman Mounted Objects

A unique and incredible model of a Roman Galley Ship, by Manfred Wild. This is truly an awe inspiring one of a kind piece made by "The Modern Day Faberge" Manfred Wild. The ships haul is made from a single clear hand carved piece of rock crystal. The top of the rock crystal haul is hand-engraved and further etched to appear as if it is made up of individual wooden planks. The ship also consists of two hand carved frosted rock crystal sails, each delicately floating in mid-air and held up by 18-karat gold chains and bars. The ships body is made up of pieces of solid two-tone matte and burnished 18-karat yellow gold, all hand-chased and further chiseled with exceptional detail and the highest quality of craftsmanship. Around either end of the ship are twenty-eight green enamel shields, each with a particular engraved design, and fitted with interchanging bezel-set round sapphire and diamond cabochons. There are two banks of twenty-six Romanesque oars on either side of the galley constructed of solid 18-karat yellow gold. To complete the rowing capacity of the galley, two complimentary solid 18-karat yellow gold and patinated gold rudders can be found on the stern, starboard and port sides. On the stern or back side of the boat is a rounded semi-circular fine-silver dome, decorated in brown enamel with a teardrop shaped emerald finial. A gold winged end is also affixed to the stern with a gold Romanesque finial further enhanced with a gold-beveled circular emerald. Attached to the beveled-emerald are four gold spurs, each with gold-beveled sapphires. Located throughout the galley are over 650 brilliant- cut diamonds, which have been meticulously set in the gold body. The top sail rests on a patinated rod with gold chain-links which attach the sail to the brown enameled stern. An anchor completes the gorgeous Roman galley and demonstrates the care and exceptionally quality of this piece. The entire galley is mounted on a gorgeous black quartzite base set in 18-karat gold.
