Antique Folk Art Sailor’s Knot Board, circa 1900, having sixteen sailor’s specialty knots: bends, hitches and splices used regularly aboard ship. All of the knots are original and mounted on a dark stained plywood panel, within a simple dark stained frame. Seven of the knots do not have identifying plaques beneath them.
It is a treat to find a genuine old sailor’s knot board, when almost everyone seen these days is a manufactured decorative reproduction. This one has darkened so well as to really show off its age proudly.
