Cutty Sark is the world’s last intact clipper ship, now preserved in a spectacular dry dock at Greenwich, London. Long, lean, and beautiful, she was built in 1869 for the tea trade but made redundant by the completion of the Suez Canal, which made steamships more economic. Instead, she earned her living, and incredible reputation for speed, in the long-distance wool trade from Australia. This ship in a bottle has been produced to celebrate the 150th anniversary of her launch, in 1869. Handmade traditionally, it features wooden hulls, cotton sails and rigging, and a rope-bound stopper.
