Pickup available at 1453 South Park Street
Usually ready in 2 hours
The sketch of the Georges Island Lighthouse, located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, depicts a prominent concrete lighthouse with a red vertical stripe on the range line and a red dome.
The lighthouse was first constructed in 1876 and replaced by the current tower in 1917. It is 16 meters (52 feet) tall and has a focal height of 17.5 meters (57 feet), with a range of 15 nautical miles. The lighthouse was automated in 1972 and is operated by the Canadian Coast Guard. The light-keeper's house remains standing a few hundred feet to the north. The island has a rich history, serving various purposes over the years, including as a strategic military location. It is also home to Fort Charlotte, a historic military fort. Georges Island can be reached by ferry, and it is a significant historical site due to its military past and the presence of the lighthouse, which has guided ships in the area for many years.

Let customers speak for us
These beautifully crafted cards come with a self-sealing gold envelope and allow the sender to express their wishes with a blank slate, which I love so I can personalize my holiday wish to the recipient. Simple and elegant, the local birds that appear on these cards capture the true essence of winter in the Maritimes!

Love the products at Inkwell, such great quality and lots of locally made options. This sticker is perfect!
I am a huge fan of lobster print and local pottery so this combined them both! I love the dimple for holding the cup, it feels so natural in my hand. I have been using it for both wine and other cold drinks so that I have an excuse to use it every day
