Description

A stippled ink drawing of a metal lamp seen from the side against a pale card. The body is a rounded, flattened shape that tapers into a long, narrow nozzle to the right, with a small rounded projection at the left end. Dense dotted shading gives the surface volume, and a narrow channel runs along the top of the nozzle.
