We tried to do it for you with great pleasure and put effort into this wooden sculpture, a wooden statue from the ash tree for your complete delight.
The image of the ship is associated with the symbolism of search, wandering, in particular, navigation (as a being that seeks to overcome its boundaries, to go beyond the present). It is also a symbol of refuge in stormy waters, like the island and Noah's ark, and an image of salvation.
Many ancient people had a belief that an underground river or sea barred the path to the afterlife and that the souls of the dead were transported there by ship or boat. This belief was especially clearly reflected in the funeral rite of the ancient Celts, Slavs, and Vikings, who buried their leaders and famous heroes on the decks of warships.
The comrades placed the fallen warrior in full combat gear into the funeral boat, pushed it away from the shore, and then showered it with lighted arrows to help the deceased quickly disappear from this world and get to the Kingdom of the Dead.
In Scandinavian folklore, the ship allegorically expresses human destiny. A ship in full sail symbolizes successful progress toward the goal.
The sailing ship is a symbol of hope, security, a transition to other levels of existence, and a sign of the moon.
Having such a wooden panel with a Scandinavian ship depicted on it, this craftwork certainly brings you confidence in your strength and hope for a promising future.
