Medieval Iron Lamp

This solid iron lamp was made after the early medieval lamp from the Sutton Hoo ship grave. It dates back to the early 7th century and can be easily lit with 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. It can also be used as a censer to burn raw incense in.
 
The lamp has been forged from iron and stands on three feet which give the lamp bowl a good footing so that it stands securely on the table and cannot easily fall over. 
 
The lamp is 90 mm high and the bowl measures 115 x 40 mm.
 
Please note: In contrast to the historical model, this replica has been made slightly smaller.
