| This lovely classic Herodian oil lamp is simple and elegant. This is the defining "style" of the period dominated by King Herod "The Great" and his offspring. It has been spun on a potters wheel with the spout added by hand (the artisans hand marks are quite clear). It is a classic design of the Herodian Period (up to 50AD) and would have, most probably, been in use about the time of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ By King Herod. It is a beautiful example of the ancient artisans work of lamp manufacture. The obvious signs of hand made ancient pottery add to the beauty of this unique piece. Size:85mm x 60mm x 23mm Weight: 43.9 g | ||||||
