Description from the seller
Magnificent original brass ship lamp originating from professional shipping. A characterful nautical collectible with a handsome, natural patina developed through decades of use. The lamp is equipped with the original ribbed Fresnel lens and various marks and inscriptions, including an R.I.N.A. approval and dating 09/03/1973.
The robust construction, heavy brass work, and original closures make this a particularly decorative object that fits perfectly in a maritime interior, restaurant, hotel, café, nautical museum, or private collection.
The lamp is in its original, unrestored condition. The lens shows some damage/chipping (see photos), appropriate to its age and nautical use. Precisely these signs of wear contribute to the authenticity of the piece.
