Scale: Not to scale. A model of a Burmese (Myanmar) junk. The hull is carved from solid timber with a planked deck. The hull is painted dark green with bright red deadwood, with stem post and port and starboard quarter detail, as well as gold rails. The decks are painted a uniform dark green. The wales appear to be made from horn inset with diamond-shaped mother-of-pearl. The three masts are rigged with rectangular sails in a finely woven red-patterned material. The foremast and mainmast are made of horn and are slightly distorted. The mizzen mast has a small topmast, and the mizzen mast parts are made from metal (brass?). There are two hatches on the deck which can be opened on hinges. There is a mother-of-pearl oculus on the starboard bow and a red-painted oculus on the port bow. There are also two mother-of-pearl carved bird vignettes in roundels on the stern. There are two glazed rectangular portholes in the port and starboard stern quarters and a stocked anchor is stowed on deck attached to a length of chain. The model is displayed on a bespoke polished wooden stand with a pair of contoured crutches.
