Experience the romance of the sea. Loaded with welcoming nautical charm, the Rustic Cape Cod Lighthouses are inspired by Americas legendary coastal lighthouses. Built for seafarers in the 1800s and often situated on the cusp of land and sea, lighthouses sent out beams of light into the darkness to receive and guide mariners to port. Each tower in the set measures 14 1/4 and 21 1/4 inches tall. Designed to hold a tea light candle, in the Lanthorn (also known as the lantern room,) which is supported by the tapered lighthouse body where, in real lighthouses, a spiral staircase is housed to allow access to the upper areas. The tapered glass cups that fit standard sized tea light candles are included. Attention to detail has not been spared, from arched doorways, multiple portholes, round watchtower platform, to the hand-hold rails and ribbed domes, these candle towers bring seaside allure to any space. Topped with a hinged, latched, and handled dome, this lantern can be hung from ceiling or placed on a table to add a stunning accent to any room. Made to look like a find from an antique market, this tower is crafted of lightweight metal and given a hand finished weathered surface.
