About the Item

A reclaimed circular domed cupola window from the White Star Lines famous Atlantic liner RMS Olympic, sister ship to the iconic Titanic. At 6ft diameter the outside is a bright white and the inside a timeless gold, both with characterful timeworn finish. The thick oak veneer over a pine and hardwood core allows for this window to have a quality style and stature. Originally used as an internal light pool for a ship, this striking structure is embellished with 'B' to the brass plates thought to mean this piece was taken from the B deck of the ship. Eight angled panels can be seen to the central raised section framed by border of sixteen windows above an oak apron. RMS Olympic The Olympic was launched on October 20, 1910, and became the largest moving object in the world. The Olympic and Titanic were built side by side in Harland & Wolff Yard in December, 1908 under the Harland & Wolff Shipyard’s new Arrol Gantry. However, the construction of Titanic took months longer and didn't enter service for some time after the Olympic. Before the Titanic's infamous fate, the Olympic was in fact the more iconic and renowned of the two ships. For passengers on her first voyage on June 14, 1911, this was a first time experience as this ship was the world’s newest, largest and most luxurious ocean liner. After it was retired in April 1935 after 24 years of service, the Olympic was dismantled at a scrapyard in Jarrow between 1935 and 1937 then later auctioned off. Many of the fixtures and fittings were bought and put on display by various establishments, hotels and museums, including the White Swan Hotel in Alnwick, Northumberland. Much like this window, many fixtures and fittings salvaged from the ship still appear in the market from time to time; a fine pair of ormolu and cut-glass ceiling light fittings recently sold for £23,000 at auction!
