The base of this 1990's ship's beacon light has been painted grey.
Once used for navigation it would have originally been fitted with a set of rotating bulbs which would make the light appear to flash as a warning signal similar to the mechanism used in a lighthouse.
Professionally re-wired with a single globe this light would look fantastic in a cafe or bar or as an occasional light in a nautical themed home.
Measures approx: 50cm x 25cm
