This waterline model of a Japanese ore/oil carrier is attributed to the builder, K. Akao from Osaka, Japan. Presented on a wood and plate glass base, the model comes with a wood box for shipping and storage. The model is truly extraordinary in it's craftsmanship, with beautifully represented metal superstructure and deck hardware, railings, portholes, lifeboats, anchor chains etc. Most likely built 40-50 years ago, but its origins are unknown. The model is 20" long and the wood box is 4"W x 6 1/2"H x 23"L. An amazing item.
