He soon developed a fine appreciation for art and collectibles, which continued as he worked as the head of a publishing house in England. Francis eventually moved to Hawaii at the request of his wife who is from here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrancis is an award-winning craftsman specializing in scale reconstructions of canoes that once sailed on the waterways of the Polynesian Triangle. The work of Francis Pimmel is of the highest quality with attention to historical accuracy and of the finest construction and finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough dedicated research Francis has become a legitimate expert on the making of ancient Hawaiian craft, especially some of the more colorful canoes of the early twentieth century. Francis has chosen to use no paints in his fine wooden models but rather to inlay beautiful naturally colored woods at painstaking effort in their stead using Koa, Milo, Ulu (Breadfruit), Lemonwood, and Primavera, as well as Ebony, Cocobolo, and exotic Tamarind wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordionProduct\"\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"panelProduct\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eApprox. 18\" L x 11.5\" W x 20.25\" H\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eCurly Koa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003eHand-painted sail\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003ePrice includes custom shipping crate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"accordionProduct\"\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"panelProduct\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eAll shipments may take a\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMINIMUM OF FIVE BUSINESS DAYS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eto be received as we are shipping from Hawaii.
