Item Details

Description

Roman, Late Imperial to Byzantine Period, ca. late 4th to early 8th century CE. An attractive ensemble of 4 mold-made pottery oil lamps, all presenting ring-form bodies, sloped shoulders, annular fill holes, and wick spouts. The first and largest exhibits a slipper-shaped body with a fin-like handle and thumb rest at the back. Its shoulders and neck are adorned with a decorative program of radiating and swirling striations, as well as scattered target-motifs. The next displays a recessed fill hole encompassed by a raised ring and a protruding handle or thumb rest at the side. The final pair are nearly identical, though 1 is redware and the other is blackware; both have discoid bodies with elongated necks, protruding spouts, petite, triangular handles at the back, and striated decoration enveloping the tops. Size (of largest): 3.8" L x 2.3" W x 1.3" H (9.7 cm x 5.8 cm x 3.3 cm)

Provenance: private C.Q. collection, Lexington, Virginia, USA, acquired from 2013 to 2014; ex-Artemis Gallery, Louisville, Colorado, USA; 3 with striated decoration are ex-D. Smith, San Diego, California, USA collection; 1 with recessed fill hole is ex-Die collection, Houston, Texas, USA
