Birdcage Anchor Lantern

An early to mid 20th century brass"birdcage" anchor light with thick-glass Fresnel lens, retaining an old fire-engine red painted surface. Also retains the original Simplex twist-in style burner. Stands 14" tall to the top of ring and the base is 6" in diameter. Can easily be electrified for interior use!

Condition: A few chips on one side of the Fresnel lens and a single split in the upper edge of the base section. Quite striking nautical fixture!
