Light fittings from the grand staircase and first class smoking lounge of the Titanic’s sister ship are set to fetch thousands of pounds at auction.

The ornate fittings were salvaged from RMS Olympic, the elder sibling of the doomed liner, after she was withdrawn from service in 1935.

They will go under the hammer at Newcastle auction house Anderson & Garland on October 1.

A brass three-branch ceiling light decorated with cut-glass acorn shades is believed to have once illuminated Olympic’s luxurious First Class Smoking Lounge.

The 46cm-wide fitting is expected to fetch between £5,000 and £8,000.

Meanwhile, a pair of ormolu and cut-glass ceiling lights believed to have hung in the ship’s First Class Grand Staircase carries an estimate of £5,000 to £10,000.

The pair was removed from a house in Northumberland around 30 years ago and has remained in storage ever since.

Similar pieces from Olympic have previously fetched far above their estimates.

A matching pair of three-branch Smoking Lounge lights sold at Anderson & Garland for £23,400 in December 2023.

And three lots of Olympic fittings made more than £72,000 in 2024, including a pair identical in design to the Grand Staircase lights now being offered.

RMS Olympic was the lead ship of White Star Line’s Olympic-class trio, alongside Titanic and Britannic.

But while both of her sister ships met premature ends, Olympic spent 24 years in service between 1911 and 1935.

She also served as a troopship during the First World War and earned the nickname “Old Reliable”.

After being withdrawn from transatlantic service, Olympic was sold to businessman Sir John Jarvis for £97,500 and partially demolished at Jarrow, Tyneside, in a project intended to provide work for the struggling region.

Her luxurious fittings were auctioned off before the ship was scrapped, with many ending up in private homes and businesses.
