Vintage Chinese Silver-Plated Dragon Boat, War Junk Model

An intricate vintage silver-plated model of a traditional Chinese vessel, complete with detailed rigging, sails, multiple large oars, deck fixtures, cannons, twin hanging anchors, and two crew figures. The stern features a plaque embossed with the traditional Chinese idiom (Yi Fan Feng Shùn), translating to "Smooth Sailing" or May your journey be unobstructed. The boat rests atop a black moulded wave-form display stand.

In Chinese culture, model junks bearing the inscription are prized symbols of good fortune, success, and safe passage. Often given as gifts to merchants, travellers, or for home/office display, they symbolize smooth business ventures and prosperous journeys overcoming life's tides. Height: 19 cm (including base). Weight: 165 g (including base). Material: Silver-plated white metal / soft metal alloy on a black composite/plastic stand. The metal is relatively soft/pliable; some components, oars, flags, or rigging show slight bending or minor historic stress/distortion consistent with age. Natural light surface tarnish and patina across the silver plating. Securely mounted to the wave base with the original underside bolt. Please inspect all close-up photographs for exact cosmetic details.
