Nautical buoy lamps with shabby chic charm.
A buoy lamp is a bright idea for any room that needs a little nautical shabby chic. Especially a wood buoy lamp with a weathered Distressed Finish, painted in colors that range from Classic Nautical to beachy turquoise. Buoy table lamps can include rope or a number painted on.
Historically, many early buoys used at sea were made from wood. Wood was a common material for buoy construction due to its buoyant properties and availability. These wooden buoys were often crafted from logs or planks and could vary in size and shape. However, modern buoys are often made from various plastics and other materials.
