Home Office Accessory: Model Ships
Our design team gets to do their fair share of home office business out here in the suburbs. Perhaps it is due to commuters getting tired of the drive to Buckhead…we certainly saw an increase when gas hit four dollars a gallon last fall.
Every so often we have a request for a sailing ship to be placed in an office as an accessory. What could be more masculine? Up until now, we have not really had a good source for quality ship models. In about a week we will have a few on our showroom floor that I am really excited to show. They were each handmade by John Hebeisen, a master woodworker from the Pacific Northwest, who runs a private shop on the banks of the Columbia River. 
The detailing is exceptional, the hulls and decking are steamed and hand planked for example, with each ship requiring from 100 to 270 hours to build!
