Item Description
This horizontal, handmade copper mailbox from Bevelo Gas & Electric Lights measures 14" X 10" X 6" and is sure to give your home or business a distinctive curb appeal.
Bevolo Gas and Electric Lights began in the French Quarter in 1945 when Andrew Bevolo, Sr. revolutionized the production of gas lamps. Utilizing a hand riveting technique rather than making brittle soldered joints, he created sustainable gas lights. Bevolo Sr. honed his skills while working for historic manufacturing companies including Ford, Sikorsky, and Higgins.
Fast forward over six decades later and you’ll see that this innovative company is still going strong, and still producing each and every piece locally by hand.
