MV Aureol 1950s Ocean Liner Oval Porthole

Original brass porthole from MV Aureol 

An Elder Dempster Line Passenger Ship called the ‘AUREOL’ built by Alexander Stephen and Sons at Glasgow in 1951

We were in Alang to see Her scrapped years ago, then known as the ‘Marianna VI’, and subsequently bought as many fittings as we could

It is unusual to see oval portholes on passenger ships, in fact, the only other Ship that we have bought oval portholes from before was the ‘Amerikanis’ formerly Union Castle Lines’ ‘Kenya Castle’. They do not make portholes this nice anymore

The porthole has four brass securing keys and high specification toughened glass which is easily strong enough to stand on

Stamped into each porthole is, ‘Utley Rainhill’. Utley is the name of the company who were brass-founders and ships light manufacturers between 1829-1977

Dimensions : 

Overall 66cm x 57cm

Glass size 46cm x 38cm

NOTE : The original glass has cosmetic marks and scratches

Approx. 47kg
