A porthole is a
circular window provided on the hull of the ships. When open, portholes allow
the light and air enter to the dark and damp below-deck quarters of the ship.
When closed, they provide a water-proof and wind-proof window that allows
maximum sunlight to the interior of the vessel.
Today portholes are
widely used as nautical decor items in homes, beach huts and coastal villas. The
portholes today are fitted with circular mirrors, so they find the best use as
mirrors in all these places. By creating the mirror design, the portholes mirrors
perform both roles effectively: they make good nautical decors and they provide
a useful mirror as well.
The quality of the
portholes available in the market makes a big difference in their price. We sell
best-quality nautical portholes made of aluminum or brass frame and fitted with
solid accessories. The brass or aluminum frame resists corrosion, so they retain
their shine and design throughout their lifetime. The portholes are provided
with hinges and nuts, so they can be opened for cleaning or replacing the
mirror. The solid metallic frame and fittings make them handy. Even with the
mirror fitted on them, you would find the brass portholes are easy to handle and can
be taken from one place to the other easily.
