Good example of a vintage ship's lantern dating from the mid 20th Century. It has a brass plaque marked "ANCHOR". It is fitted with round clear glass and has a carrying handle as well as brackets for hanging. It has its original oil burner inside which is accessed through the base of the lamp.
It is in good original condition. The lamp has been lightly cleaned but not over polished. It has a nice aged patina and is not without some minor knocks and marks and the copper has tarnished over time. The glass is original and is undamaged. I have not tested the oil burner although I see no reason why it shouldn't work and the wick turner moves well.
