(SCode-T [MISC] **)
DESCRIPTION -- An item from the shipwreck of an old Clipper Ship which is a section of 'scupper bearing pipe' made of 'Lignum Vitae'. This was an item, which was made from African hardwood, used for its durability at sea. The 'scupper-bearing pipe' was used to run water away from the deck of the ship. The item was found amongst pieces from the wreck of a Clipper Ship, sunk south of Ireland and dates circa 1860. This is a very unusual piece and is an ex museum object. The size is approx. 6" (15cm) high and 4" (10cm) wide. High postage due to heavy item.

HISTORY -- A Clipper Ship was a very fast sailing ship of the 19th century that had three or more masts and a square rig. They were generally narrow for their length, could carry limited bulk freight, small by later 19th century standards, and had a large total sail area. Clipper ships were mostly made in British and American shipyards, though France, the Netherlands and other nations also produced some.
