Stunning Roman Bronze Oil Lamp - Male's Head

Item Details

Description

Rome, Imperial Period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE.

The round base has a square perforation, presumably for fitting into a larger structure. A fabulous ancient oil lamp, unique for its depiction of a deity head boasting a stunning green and russet patina. Size: 6.75" W x 3.375" H (17.1 cm x 8.6 cm)
