A large carved wood maritime sign, fashioned in the form of a scrolled banner or ribbon. The sign is constructed from a solid piece of weathered wood, likely oak or teak, displaying a prominent grain and a silvered patina characteristic of outdoor exposure. The central section features the incised text NORTH SEA, flanked by the dates 19 and 88, all rendered in a block sans-serif font with gilt-decorated infills. The banner is bordered by a thin incised and gilt line. The ends of the ribbon are carved with swallow-tail scrolls, and four circular mounting holes are visible for installation. The reverse shows a darker, less weathered surface.

Banner Width: 240 cm.
