ANTIQUE ITALIAN SHIP SS VERDI NAUTICAL BAR STOOLS - $10,000 - (Northport, NY)

THIS IS A SET OF 4 BAR STOOLS FROM THE SS GUISEPPE VERDI. THEY ARE SOLID BRASS AND MAHOGONY. THEY ARE IN VERY NICE SHAPE AND JUST NEED TO BE CLEANED. ONE HAS MINOR SCRATCHING ON THE SEAT. THE SEAT IS 13.25". THE BASE IS 17.5". THE HEIGHT IS 31.5" THE SHIP WAS BUILT BETWEEN 1906 AND 1915. IT WAS AN ITALIAN TRANS ATLANTIC PASSENGER SHIP THAT CARRIED UP TO 2200 PASSENGERS MAINLY FROM NAPLES, GENOA, AND PALERMO TO ELLIS ISLAND BETWEEN 1915 AND 1928. THEN SOLD TO THE JAPANEESE 1N 1928 AND RENAMED YAMATO MARU. THE SHIP WAS SUNK BY A US TORPEDO IN 1943. MY SISTER PURCHASED THESE FOR A PROJECT THAT NEVER HAPPENED IN 1989 AND HAVE BEEN IN STORAGE EVER SINCE. BUYER MUST ARRANGE SHIPPING OR PICK UP. THESE ARE VERY HEAVY.
