Product description

This oil lamp is modeled after an original from the 1st century AD. Decorated with the depiction of an exotic lion, it represents one of the many diverse forms produced during the Roman era. Lamps like this one were in use as far back as the Roman Republic.

Olive oil was the original fuel, but you can also burn this lamp with modern lamp oil. Fully handmade using two different molds, it is fired at 1,200 °C. Measures 11 x 8 cm. Comes with a wick included.
