Model overall -- 6 x 22in. (15 x 56); Case -- 11 x 26 x 7½in. (28 x 66 x 19cm.), Provenance: English private owners from the first half 19th-Century and thence by descent. This model enjoys several distinctive features which suggest it is probably a unique example. Apparently unlisted and of a hybrid design, it is possible that it was built as a private commission for an important official, either as a proposal or one that was intended for private use. The most immediately distinctive feature is the delicately-carved figurehead of Neptune - all the known “Neptunes” are large ships of the line and not small craft. It is thought that the Admiralty were beginning to experiment with character heads on small 5th and 6th Rates around 1720 so it is not impossible to extend that to an 8-gun vessel; alternatively, were this a proposal model it would seem probable that a simple billet head, or perhaps the usual Lion, would be used, that it’s a character head on such a small craft is rare. It is possible that this hybrid design might have been considered for a small class -- an early “Neptune” class perhaps, but which remained a proposal (latterly there was a “Neptune” class of 1st Rates built from 1790); alternatively, if it represents a one-off commission for a wealthy naval dignitary, it may incorporate part of his Grant of Arms. The distribution of the gun ports is also unusual - six in the stern and two forwards providing for a very long deck with shallow bulwarks (often associated with bomb ketches) and, most unusually, a capstan and windlass almost side-by-side. The mast distribution suggests it may have been rigged as a snow and, with a comparatively shallow draft carrying a large sail area, it should have been a fast sailer - ideal for ferrying the new Hanoverian monarchs’ officials over the English Channel and North Sea perhaps? The loss of the taffrail carvings in the late 19th-Century is a great shame as these may have held additional clues, and it is thought that after suffering this accident it was placed in the overly-tight case.
