It is a three-inch round of faceted crystal glass on a red ribbon, printed so the open areas of the drawing let the light through, in your choice of a white or gold gift box. It suits a lighthouse collector too, since this is one of the most photographed lights in New England and is seldom done well at small size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mc-facts-box\" style=\"background:#f7f7f7; border:1px solid #e3e3e3; border-radius:6px; padding:16px 20px 8px; margin:20px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align:center; font-size:11px; letter-spacing:.06em; text-transform:uppercase; color:#555; margin:0 0 12px;\"\u003eQuick Facts — Bass Harbor Head Light Ornament\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Subject: Bass Harbor Head Light on its granite cliff, Mount Desert Island\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Town: Southwest Harbor, Maine\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Size: 3 in (76 mm) round, faceted edge, red ribbon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Material: crystal glass, line-drawn art printed to let the crystal show through\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Packaging: white or gold gift box\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Made to order in the USA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:12px; line-height:1.55; color:#444; margin:0 0 9px; padding-left:14px; text-indent:-14px;\"\u003e›  Ships free in the U.S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"mc-ornament-story\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe light was first lit on September 1, 1858, to mark the entrance to Bass Harbor and Blue Hill Bay.
