But remarkably, it was based on a real animal. A huge albino sperm whale with a violent streak that had fascinated whalers & the reading public for decades before Melville published his masterpiece. The whale, Mocha Dick, was named for the island of Mocha in the Pacific off the coast of Chile. Our wooden whale is an all handcrafted cutout whale, & he is supersized, measuring in at a great 41 long. He is so sculptural at this size. Finished in whitewash, the distressed wood finish amplifies his surface texture. We will always cut him with the grain running horizontally as if he has been in the ocean for decades. This is the most fantastic piece for your beach house, porch, or to bring that beach feel home. Note: Under options, type refers to lettering.
