Description

A round terracotta oil lamp is shown from above on a pale background. A short nozzle projects from the top edge and a small round filling hole sits near the centre of the disc, with a second circular hole at the bottom edge. Concentric rings surround the central area, and the surface shows some worn patches and small chips.
