Genuine Salvaged Brass Nautical Passage Light

This brass nautical passage light comes from old cargo vessels that sailed from the 1950s to the 1980s. Made from solid marine-grade brass with a protective cage and thick clear glass shade, it’s designed for tough ship conditions – strong and reliable for safe passage lighting.

At 2.6 kg, it has that proper heavy feel you expect from real ship fittings – premium quality that’s far better than lightweight modern copies. Carefully salvaged and restored in Europe, it keeps the original polished vintage look with natural marks that tell its story, but is ready for today’s use as a stylish wall light.
