Description :

A seafaring duo of nautical lighting artifacts, this lot includes:

  • Antique Starboard Navigation Lantern – A robust, heavy-duty maritime lantern designed to mark the starboard (right) side of a vessel. Featuring a green lens to mark the starboard side and red lens to mark the port side, this piece was likely fueled by kerosene or oil and used aboard ships prior to modern electrical systems. Its cylindrical body and aged patina suggest early 20th-century manufacture. Dimensions: Approx. 11" H × 7" diameter Estimated Value: $200–$250

  • Vintage Brass Nautical Signal Lamp – A rectangular-bodied lantern crafted from brass and copper, styled after 19th-century signal lights. Likely a mid-20th-century import, possibly from India, this lamp offers the appearance of antique maritime equipment with decorative appeal. Dimensions: Approx. 11" H × 4" W × 6" D Estimated Value: $40–$50
