Housed in its original brass-cased casing, complete with hinged access panel and weathered patina, this is a true piece of marine engineering history, salvaged whole and repurposed without alteration to its character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRising from the casing on salvaged steel legs, the piece lifts the indicator off the surface like a small monument, while overhead, a sprawling network of brass and steel pipework branches into five independent light heads, the most of any piece in the collection. Each is fitted with a protective wire cage and a warm filament bulb, the lights arranged at varying heights and angles so that, lit, the piece resembles something between an engine room fixture and a chandelier, utilitarian in origin, but undeniably elegant in final form.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEvery pipe, elbow, and joint above the dial is genuinely salvaged, hand-fitted rather than manufactured to specification, continuing the same philosophy that defines every piece in this collection: nothing wasted, nothing reproduced, everything earned through age and use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis is, by nature of its source, entirely singular.
