Nice ship! Sorry to hear your neighbor passed. Nice to leave this to you.
It's beautifully made that's for sure, so much detail. Owned by a rich merchant? Hope someone will happen along that can tell if it's Japanese or Chinese. It's not flying any flag(s). Perhaps made by a POW.

Aw, Gilligan, you're trying to take all the fun out of my life ! One man's junk, is another mans treasure ! Oops ! Just slipped out. Almost certain, the dragon is Chinese. PS: The extra "g" was intentional & think I will retain it.
Thank you for your comments :)
I did a little work for a store here that imported a lot(+) of these model ships of all designs from the Orient. Quit often we got ones with tangled lines & I often helped untangle them & so had 1st hand inspection of the quality. They were extremely well made & sold at reasonable prices here (SXM). This looks like the same grade.
