Nothing symbolises aviation history more simply and evocatively than propellers. Old ones were usally taken home, completed with a clock, and hung over the mantel. We have created faithful replicas of classic models and decorated them to become attractive wall décor. Respecting and celebrating history while making it relevant to modern day interiors.
WWI Wood Propeller, Large
All the planes flying the skies during WWI and the 20s featured wood propellers. Mounted on the shaft of huge six to twelve cylinder engines, the engine was started up by giving the propeller a solid swing. Early wood propellers are often the only artifacts saved from old aircraft, and antique ones are rare and costly. Our reproduction is hand crafted out of solid pinewood, exactly the same as the originals. It makes beautiful wall décor at a surprisingly affordable cost.
