Description

A photograph of a small terracotta lamp shown on its side against a plain grey backdrop. The shallow, boat-shaped body tapers to a pointed nozzle at the right, and a broad, rounded opening sits at the left end. The rim looks pale and the interior is shadowed, with a hairline crack across the body and a blue tag beneath the base.
