Solid Copper and Brass
Anchor Lantern - High Quality
By far the most popular
lantern in our inventory now available in a VERY High
Quality version.
This model anchor lamp is hand machined in
the Netherlands by some very skilled artisans of pure
heavy-gauge copper and brass. The Fresnel style lens
is also very heavy glass made to magnify the oil lamp light to be visible
for many nautical miles.
NOTE: The glass is CLEAR,
NOT green
The anchor lamp is named
for it's use. A 360o white light is required to be
displayed at the highest point
( the tallest mast) on
all vessels at anchor or under way at night. These oil
burning lanterns were made to be lit and hoisted to the top
of the mast with one rope tied to the handle and 2 ropes
through the brass guides.
Since we strongly suggest that you not burn oil in it
we have installed a battery operated
LED
Tap Light .
You can use it right out
of the box.
Approx. 12 inches tall,
with the bail (handle) down.
Item: SL-043
