Outdoor Figurine Appraisal

Ceramic Solar Lighthouse Decorative Figurine

This item is a decorative ceramic solar lighthouse figurine, intended for outdoor or indoor display. It features a tall, tapered tower with a realistic brick pattern in a light brown or tan color, accented by horizontal white bands that simulate masonry courses at different levels. The lighthouse is constructed with at least two distinct levels of balconies, indicated by black railings encircling the tower. Small, circular windows with cross-hatched panes are visible on the brick sections. The top section of the lighthouse comprises a black lantern room with multiple clear panes, surmounted by a black, multi-faceted roof structure, which likely houses the solar panel for the light mechanism. The base of the lighthouse is substantial, sculpted to resemble a rocky outcrop in shades of grey and brown, providing stability and an aesthetic foundation. The overall condition appears good with no immediately visible chips, cracks, or significant wear. The colors are consistent throughout. The craftsmanship suggests a manufactured decorative piece, likely intended to replicate the appearance of a real lighthouse in miniature form. Given the 'solar lighthouse' context, it is designed to illuminate at night using energy captured during the day. The style is classic nautical or coastal decor, suitable for a garden, patio, or indoor display. Its size appears to be substantial, likely between 2-3 feet tall, making it a prominent decorative element.
