2. We've re-purposed this retired mid-20th century ship's navigational light into a handsome and functional nautical table lamp. Made of galvanized metal, the surface retains an old red painted surface and bares the MASTHEAD brass ribbon tag on the front shoulder of the fixture. The glass Fresnel lens survives with a few cracks and rim chips, but is all intact and functional.
We've added all new lamp wires and fixtures and the new lamp lighting choices toggle between the interior light and the lamp light via the upper light switch. You can use either the upper room light, the interior lantern light or both as desired. You gain access to the lamp interior through the hinged back door that locks in place with a wire slide latch. Here's the link to authentic mid-20th century ship's navigational MASTHEAD light.

3. Early to mid 20th century Perko combination boat running light that we have re-purposed into a nautical table lamp. The lantern is hinged on the sides and both the port and starboard doors open in front of the light. The oval brass Perko manufacturers label is attached to the back and states "PERKO DE-LITE, PERKINS M.L. CO. BRKLYN. NY. USA". Retains an old black painted surface and brass chimney cap and survives with expected surface wear from years of seagoing use. Fresnel lens are free of chips or cracks. Here's the link to old Perko port/starboard nautical table lamp.

6. This is a pair of vintage made buoy table lamps that we restored replacing all of the old fixtures and wires as well as touching up the old painted surfaces. I like this pair of lamps next to a sofa, on a sideboard and as a pair of lights next to your bed. These lamps are no longer on our web store, but we do find them occasionally and offer them restored for sale, Here's the link to our
nautical table lamps.

7. This 1960’s vintage anchor lantern has been re-purposed into a nautical table lamp, constructed of solid brass and retains a polished and lacquered finish. The glass that protects the burner and font is a Fresnel lens similar to the type used in lighthouses worldwide. This lens amplifies the light from the bulb so that the light appears much brighter than its actual source. Brass wire guards fastened on with copper rivets protect the lens from potential breakage.
The lamp lighting choices toggles between the interior light and the lamp light via the upper light switch. You can use either the upper room light, the interior lantern light or both as desired. A dimmer can also be added to adjust the light intensity for soft ambient light. The interior bulb is reached through the hinged lid of the fixture. Here's the link to vintage brass anchor nautical table lamp.

8. One of my all time favorite nautical lamps that we've produced was this exceptional pair made from early blocks with tackle that we sold a few years back. These retained their original green-painted surface and gorgeous aged patina. Very large and extremely heavy- unsurpassed quality for those seeking the very best! Contact us to discuss your nautical lamp desires. Our inventory is constantly changing with new items arriving daily.

Here's another new and authentic marine navigational light that we re-purpose into nautical table lamps are these beautiful authentic port and starboard brass ship's lanterns converted to table lamps. Each lamp has two sockets, one interior and one above under the lampshade. These lamps are made from brand new, never-used, ship's lanterns by the famous Den Haan Roterdam, The Netherlands. New, UL approved sockets and wiring. One turn knob above the lamp allows either just interior light, just lamp light, both lights, or no lights. Here's the link to authentic port and starboard brass ship's lanterns converted to table lamps.

10. We'll finish up this year's "top ten" with one of my personal favorites- a classic authentic WWII era US Navy quarterdeck bell re-purposed in to a nautical table lamp. We re-purposed this bell because of an old repaired crack (barely noticeable) but no longer produces a bell ring. See closeup pictures below.
This cast iron bell was made by the "Harvard Lock Company NY" as embossed on the top of the bell and U.S.N embossed on the bell's lower rim. The bell measures a base diameter of 9 1/2 inches and a height of 9 inches including mounting stem and 19-1/2 inches to the top of the lamp shade (as shown). This Navy bell table lamp will make a nice addition to any nautical inspired interior and home. The bell weighs approximately 17 pounds.

The Susan Constant, Godspeed and Discovery -- re-creations of the three vessels that brought America’s first permanent English colonists to Virginia in 1607 -- are the backbone of the Jamestown Settlement sailing program and have been designated “the official fleet of the Commonwealth” by the Virginia General Assembly. The donation of nautical items stipulated that proceeds would support the Jamestown Settlement sailing program. Private funding has an essential role in supporting the largely volunteer nature of this effort. Along with three paid staff members, up to 35 individuals volunteer 10,000 hours each year to maintain and sail these historic ships.
