Description

This is an extremely well made authentic ancient "Imperial Roman" terracotta oil lamp with ring base and incised designs encircling the central fill hole. The piece has a nice patina and appropriate wear showing age with carbon/ash residue around the nozzle from original use. This lamp is smaller than the average ancient oil lamp, and may have been used for personal and/or ceremonial activities. DIMENSIONS: 2.5" L x 1.75" W x .75" H (lamp 3)
