Terracotta Handmade Small Oil Lamp

This stunning small terracotta oil lamp is handmade on the island of Crete, featuring a design inspired by the timeless artistry of Ancient Greece. These oil lamps are made slowly and delicately using traditional methods and natural materials. 

These oil lamps are not just ceramics, they are made to bring beauty, atmosphere and meaning into the home.

Size: H3.5 x W6.5 x L9cm 

Wick and instructions included.

Use with olive oil (do not use with commercial lamp oil or any fuel other than olive oil).

Due to the handmade nature of our ceramics, slight variations do occur. These unique details and glaze hues are what differentiate them from factory made items and are what we appreciate most about the craftsmanship.

Handmade on the island of Crete.
