OUT OF STOCK Light houses have enjoyed an almost three hundred year era of guiding ships safely along their seafaring voyages.The houses were built along shipping lanes as well as other heavily-traveled areas of the oceans and the seas. In the beginning, the lighthouses were constructed mainly of sandstone, but later the building material was changed to brick and mortar.Fires which were kept burning inside the lighthouses were fuelled by wood and coal in the beginning. The wood and coal was replaced by whale oil later on. Finally, as the years passed by, the lighthouse keepers switched to kerosene as a way to keep the everburning flame aglow. In 1994, with the advent of modern technology, and the introduction of the satellite navigational system, the towers which loomed over the seashore were upgraded to use solar powered beacons.

This light house is 130 cm tall and built from hard wood. It is suitable for display in your living room corner or next to the sofa.
