Description

Own a Piece of History! Here is a spectacular Imperial Period (c. 2nd to 4th century A.D.) Roman mold-formed terracotta oil lamp coated in a pale-green resin/wax. The lamp is defined by a circular base, gradually-expanding walls within the tondo, leading to a single fill hole offset to the left of Nike. The Goddess stands atop a globe, her right arm holding a victory laurel and her left carrying a coiling staff. Volutes flank the sides of an angular nozzle & wick spout. DIMENSIONS: 1" H x 3" W x 4" L This artifact was purchased via a UK auction, and has been attested as authentic to the Roman Empire (264 B.C. - 476 A.D.) by Mr. Matthew Wicks of Ancient Hands LTD, and accompanied by a digitally signed PDF copy of its “Provenance & Ownership” document.
