Genuine Salvaged Brass Vandal Resistant Security Light
This vandal resistant brass light comes from old cargo ships that sailed in the 1970s and 1980s. Made from solid marine-grade brass with a heavy clear glass lens, it’s built to withstand rough conditions – strong, durable, and full of real maritime history.
At 2.7 kg, it has that satisfying heavy feel you get from proper ship fittings – premium quality that’s much better than lightweight modern versions. Carefully restored in Europe, it keeps the original antique charm but is ready for today’s use as a secure outdoor wall light.
