This detailed technical engraving of the famous fleet carrier "HMS Ark Royal" has been
diamond engraved into black polished aluminium. The profile line drawing has
taken many hours of digitising by our team of experienced designers.

Mounted onto a 9" x 7" verneered plinth it is easily fitted to the wall
with the wall hanging slot.
