A vintage maritime-themed decorative lantern, featuring a clear glass cylindrical well-cover protected by a three-arm copper cage. The metalwork displays a heavy green verdigris patina from exposure. The top of the fixture is fitted with a cast metal T-junction pipe fitting, with a length of thick natural fibre rope tied in a nautical knot. The interior contains a glass bulbous element. The piece rests on a tripod base formed by the cage framework. This item is characteristic of maritime architectural salvage and is intended for decorative display. A handwritten tag is attached to the glass, and a printed auction lot tag is also present.
