Description from the seller

Authentic Vintage Aluminium Ship Engine Room Switch

Authentic Vintage Aluminium Ship Engine Room Switch
Authentic Salvaged Engine Room Switch
Bring genuine industrial maritime history to your space with this polished vintage ship engine switch. We reclaim each one from old cargo and passenger ships that sailed from the 1950s to the 1980s, often from secure engine room areas. Skilled craftsmen in Europe carefully clean and restore it to preserve its original character while making it perfect for decorative or functional use.

Made from durable marine-grade aluminium, this switch stands up to tough conditions. At 0.5 kg, it feels light yet sturdy – quality construction that lasts, unlike flimsy modern copies. The polished finish adds a clean, classic touch, ideal for nautical-themed rooms, workshops, or as a unique decorative piece.
