Like many New Yorkers, Emily Fischer didn?t start out there. She grew up in a small town in rural Wisconsin and studied architecture at the University of Michigan, earning numerous academic honors and awards. After working as an architect in New York City, she eventually launched her own design business. Her work ranges from large ship-shaped kites to quilts featuring coastal shorelines. At the heart of each project is a sense of playfulness that feels both timeless and boundless.

Beautiful but sets I ordered were each stapled to packaging.
I was so excited for two of these ships to arrive for an installation I was doing but sadly both of the two ships I ordered had fabric stapled to the packaging so small holes were in the ships. Great price, just bummed that they have holes I will need to repair by hand.

Beautiful, ethereal, and so unique! Baby mobile
I've had my eye on this kite for ages, and finally purchased it when it came back in stock, shortly after we found out we were expecting #3. I've purchased or crafted a mobile to hand down to each kiddo, and I'm perhaps most excited about this one- especially since it can be used as a functional kite some day. Double uses! It is truly a beautiful piece. I can't wait to put the rest of baby's nursery together.

It's beautiful and well-crafted
Flown it once, it was marvelous despite less than ideal weather conditions. When not flying, it hangs in the staircase on a nylon string and is a unique decoration. It was really nicely packaged with clear instructions and was a joy to assemble. #sweepstakes

One of the Best Gifts I've Found for my Boyfriend
I was so pleased with this product! I got it for my boyfriend as a part of his Christmas present and it is a huge hit. First of all, I was very impressed because even though the kite comes flat in an envelope ready to put together, it was packaged in a HUGE box with tons of cushioning paper so that it wouldn't break. Putting it together was pretty easy, just don't be afraid to be a little forceful when you attach the rubber bands (holds it together by suspension). This kite is stronger than it looks!!! It looks so beautiful just sitting in the living room and I think we will probably mainly use it as decor because it's so elegant, but it was also super fun to take it out and [try] to fly it (it hasn't been very windy recently). Like I mentioned as a con, the kite seems a little unstable on it's own. I might get a tail to help it fly better in the future. However, it is worth noting that we haven't been able to find the perfect wind to fly it. Oh, and also, my mom thinks it is so cool as well and is thinking about ordering it for her sister's birthday. This gift really could please a lot of people (or yourself)! Overall, an amazing purchase and 100% worth the money. My boyfriend and I LOVE it!

Functional AND beautiful
We got the ship primarily to hang as decor in my son's room, and it looks great and he loves it. We tried flying it as a kite once, but the wind was not ideal (also struggled with a smaller normal kite). Seems like it will work on a better day, so we can't wait to try again.

Great gift and decorative centerpiece!
The ship is currently hanging in my partner's house. It looks great floating near the ceiling! It was straightforward to assemble, though I wondered if some parts were mis-measured or if you just had to pull really hard to get components to fit. Stretching the fabric boat part open over the 2 sideways bars was very difficult, and we couldn't fit the wooden sail supports into the mast notches at all. Due to this I don't think it will fly, but it is still beautifully decorative and he absolutely loved the gift!

Can the kite be easily taken apart for storage? Or is it meant to be kept intact between uses?

Is this kite already put together or is it a kit?

Does this require more skill to fly than a typical kite?
Verified reply from Alexis R
Nope. It works just like all kites. A little wind up under the sails and your off to find your treasure in the sky!
