Description

Side view of a corroded metal lamp with a shallow, bowl-shaped body and two curved handles, one at each end, that curl upward. Two small upright pins rise from the rim between them. The object stands on a pale background, with a soft shadow beneath its base, and its surface is pitted and encrusted.
