Buoy Beacon Lamp

The Corporation of Trinity House is the General Lighthouse Authority for England and Wales, with responsibility for nearly 600 Aids to Navigation from traditional features such as lighthouses, buoys and beacons to the latest satellite navigation technology.

This style of beacon is known as an AGA 200, they were decommissioned in the 70s. They were usually mounted on a buoy at sea. The figure 200 refers to the mm diameter of the glass Fresnel lens inside. 200’s like this stand 3ft or 1 metre tall.

We pick the best examples and send them to our professional polishers who are the best in the business when it comes to stripping, polishing and lacquered to retain their incredible appearance.

The stand is hand crafted by a professional blacksmith here in South Devon and is inspired by the frame work of the original buoys.

The main feature of these striking beacon is the hand made Fresnel lens, the coloured filter can be removed.

Superb sculptural and collectable marine antique, fully lit with flex, plug and inline switch.
