Handcrafted Wooden Canoe by B. Elie
Handcrafted wooden canoe also called ‘Périssoire’ for 5 people by B. Elie in 1931.
It is a very rare handmade object…
The French based maker – E . Belie – has made this perissoire on request of a Jewish family in 1931!
At over 4 meters in length, this canoe provides ample space for 5 persons. All parts (oars, movable seats) are completely original and intact.
The Jewish family used it to make excursions on the Marne (river in France). When the second world war broke out, they gave this boot to their french neighbor to take care of it.
After the war, the family (they all survived) decided to move to Israël and they gave this handcrafted wooden canoe to their neighbor as a thank you gift.
This man became old and gave it to his neighbor (a lady with a passion for water sports). She became old as well, and had a shoulder problem so she could no longer row. We immediately felt in love with the boot because it’s a beautiful handcrafted piece!
So we bought the boot from here, that’s why we know the whole story…
We have polished the canoe and oiled it regularly so that the wood is once again radiant and optimally protected from water, making it perfect for use as a family boat.
This périssoire is a museum piece with a special story, but you can still use it to row on the river….
A very beautiful and attractive item with a very special story!
