AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent original nautical lamp of the bull's-eye type, or bulkhead wall sconce, recovered from a vessel dating from the second half of the 20th century (approx. the 1960s–70s).

This piece stands out for its exceptional state of preservation. Unlike most objects recovered from the sea, this specimen retains its mechanical functionality intact: the four lateral butterfly screws turn smoothly, allowing the grille to be opened and access to the interior with ease.

Main features

• Material: Sturdy body made of naval-grade cast aluminum with original patina.
• Cristal: Original thick protective crystal, without cracks or breaks, that provides a perfect diffuse light for industrial environments or lofts.
• Electrical condition: Fully inspected and working. Equipped with an original high-quality ceramic lampholder (E27).
• Versatility: It can be installed both indoors and outdoors (terraces, gardens) due to its high durability.
An authentic piece of industrial archaeology, not a modern reproduction. Ideal for collectors of maritime objects or for high-end decorating projects.
