Brass "90 degree" Bulkhead Light (new)

These are newly made, high quality cast brass 90 degree bulkhead (passageway) lights designed after those used on board ships from an earlier era. Features a brass screw-bezel cage and clear glass cover. Measures 4" wide, 10 1/4" long with 5" projection.

DESIGNER INSIGHT: Fixtures like these are perfect for both indoor and outdoor use. We personally like these fixtures to be used in bathrooms, hallways and closets. They can also be used as a light for your finely fitted yacht. They are a better match in an interior setting to associate with brushed steel fixtures than a brass example. Always a great light in a nautical design but also in contemporary or warehouse conversions!

We recommend the use of LED light bulbs for all enclosed light fixtures like his one.The LED, or light-emitting diode, is essentially a miniature light source encased in a plastic lens. LED's produce light when electrons inside the diode, excited by the flow of current, release energy in the form of light photons. LED lighting is ultra-compact and dramatically more efficient than traditional incandescent bulbs up to 85% more efficient and over 10% more efficient than compact fluorescent bulbs (CFL's). And, because LED bulbs are based on solid-state lighting technology that emits light from a chip, they produce minimal heat and there is no filament to burn out, as with incandescent bulbs. Nor do they contain mercury and other toxic material.
