Little Point Sable Lighthouse Ceramic Tile

A wonderful decoration for a table top or for a box top. This ceramic tile features art of a lighthouse. The beautiful red brick Little Sable Point stands over 100 feet tall with a light that could be seen for 19 miles. A home for light keepers was originally built alongside the lighthouse and was staffed by a variety of light keepers until 1954. By then the lighthouse was under the direction of the U.S. Coast Guard, who converted the light to electricity and made it automatic. The house and other buildings on the property were demolished soon after. The original Fresnel lens is still in operation.
