Why You’ll Love It
Created by Tony Posada, founder of Mini Fleets, this remarkable hand-sculpted metal sailing ship captures an extraordinary level of detail in miniature form. Tiny hand-painted sculpted sails, intricate rigging, and a flying British Red Ensign flag give it the presence of a treasured museum model in an incredibly small scale.
Perfect displayed in a captain’s study, nautical library, harbor vignette, maritime cabinet, or alongside maps, globes, and seafaring treasures.

A Note About Value
Every miniature we offer has been carefully evaluated for its craftsmanship, rarity, condition, provenance, and collectibility. Many of the artisan pieces we sell are one-of-a-kind works that may never appear on the market again. While original retail prices provide an interesting historical reference, they rarely reflect decades of appreciation, the artist's legacy, or the scarcity of surviving examples.
Our pricing reflects the miniature's place within today's collector market and the years we've spent studying the artists, histories, and values that make these tiny works of art so special.
A Commitment to Research
Every miniature has a story, and uncovering it is one of our greatest passions. We carefully research each piece, but unsigned or illegible works can remain mysteries. If you can identify an artist or provide additional information, we'd be delighted to hear from you and will gladly update the listing to preserve their legacy.
