Home > British History Gifts > Cutty Sark GiftsGiftware made from reclaimed Cutty Sark Pitch Pine |
 | Cutty Sark was launched in 1869 and was the fastest and most famous of the old tea clippers. She left London on her maiden voyage in February 1870 and sailed around The Cape of Good Hope to Shanghai in three-and-a-half months.
She was constructed with 5x4 pitch pine bolted to an iron frame with black pitch and 1" thick teak on top. In May 2007, during her restoration, fire ravaged the vessel.
It is from the original pine salvaged before the fire that our master craftsman has created our Cutty Sark Gift range below. |
