Ships Deadeye Pulley Block. Wood with Cast Iron Rim. With a great Patina.

A deadeye is an item used in the standing and running rigging of traditional sailing ships. It is a round thick wooden disc with one or more holes through it, perpendicular to the plane of the disc. Single and triple-hole deadeyes are most commonly seen. The three-holed blocks were called deadeyes because the position of the three holes resemble the eye and nose sockets of a sheep's skull.
