BASSETT- LOWKE MODEL RIVA STYLE WOODEN BOAT - EXTREMELY RARE - REQUIRES RESTORATION

Description

BASSETT- LOWKE RIVA STYLE MODEL WOODEN BOAT


THIS MODEL BOAT IS EXTREMELY RARE – IT HAS BEEN IN THE FAMILY FOR MANY DECADES AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN STORED INSIDE

I CANNOT STRESS ENOUGH JUST HOW RARE THIS MODEL BOAT ACTUALLY IS – IT REALLY IS A VERY UNIQUE ONE-OFF

BRITISH-MADE PROBABLY AROUND THE 1930'S, IT HAS 'BASSETT-LOWKE NORTHAMPTON' STAMPED INTO THE BRASS MOTOR HOUSING, WHICH I HAVE SHOWN IN THE PHOTOGRAPHS

IT HAS A BEAUTIFUL POLISHED WOOD FINISH IN THE ICONIC RIVA STYLE

ORIGINALLY POWERED FOR USE ON A BOATING LAKE

ALL PARTS OF THE BOAT ARE COMPLETELY ORIGINAL

I AM SURE ENTHUSIASTS AND RESTORERS WILL KNOW EXCACTLY WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING AT HERE

THE BOAT WILL REQUIRE RESTORING TO WORKING ORDER AND WILL LOOK ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE WHEN BROUGHT BACK TO ITS FORMER GLORY – FOR USE ON A BOATING LAKE OR DISPLAY

A GENUINELY GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE SOMETHING SO RARE AND UNIQUE

I HOPE THE PHOTOGRAPHS DO IT JUSTICE

23 INCHES LONG
9 CM HIGH
15.5 CM WIDE AT WIDEST POINT
