This early medieval iron lamp is based on the lamp from the Sutton Hoo ship burial, dated from the 7th century. It is forged from iron and stands on three feet which give the bowl lamp a good footing so that it stands securely on the table and cannot easily fall over. In contrast to the historical model, we have made this replica slightly smaller. It could be easily lit with any vegetable (or animal) oil, or leftover wax, to which you simply add a few small pieces of wood that serve as wicks. To extinguish it, it is best to simply place a wooden board on top of the lamp so that the flames go out. Measurements: 9 cm high x 11.5 cm diameter. 0/5 (0 Reviews)
