Founded in 1999, Old-Modern Handicrafts (OMH) is a leading factory in manufacturing high quality wooden ship models. OMH started with about 20 popular models such as the RMS Titanic and the USS Constitution.

OMH is widely supported around the world with its eye catching, easy to display, and affordable ship models. These models are proudly displayed in many homes, offices, luxurious galleries, and museums around the world.
Besides scale models, OMH also makes wooden canoes and kayaks that looks beautiful and also performs very well on water.
