Wooden Ship’s Deadeye

This authentic wooden ship’s deadeye measures 7 inches in diameter and features the traditional three-hole design used to tension shrouds and support masts on sailing vessels. Carved from dense hardwood, the piece has developed a rich, dark patina from age and exposure, giving it a striking, almost ebony-toned appearance.

The recessed grooves along the edges show where heavy lanyards once passed through, bearing the marks of its long maritime service. With its bold size and deep coloration, this deadeye is both a functional relic of seafaring history and a distinctive decorative piece.

• Material: Solid hardwood with dark patina

• Function: Rigging element for securing shrouds
