Description

Incomplete lamp

with nozzle and body preserved

but handle lost. Decoration on the upper bulging

convex surface includes an alternating series of ivy leaves and protruding half knobs

with a single palm leaf placed directly opposite the nozzle and in between two protruding half knobs. The space between the two triglyphs closest to the handle is left undecorated. Each element is located between three vertical incised lines (similar to triglyphs). The inner

circular concave surface around the central hole has no decoration

and half of the central hole has chipped away. Traces of charring on the base of the lamp. A single well-preserved original piece

with traces of white sediment on the upper surface and faint traces of red slip on the base. Same size as SML1989

which are both larger than SML1990 and SML1991.
