This fully functional replica oil lamp (50 BC to AD 50) is hand made from the earth in the Holy Land. Just pour in the oil, insert a wick and light it.  This lamp is one of the most basic and inexpensive light source you can own.

Olive oil works best in this lamp but any cooking oil will do.  You can also use bees wax, fish oil, sesame oil, nut oil, shortening, and other similar substances.  Olive oil burns without smoke or smell. Some vegetable oils may smoke or may not burn at all (i.e. corn oil). Do not use lamp oil.  Lamp oil is more volatile and is unsafe for these types of lamps!

No Special Finish Shades of clay may vary slightly

We purchase these oil lamps in large quantities and pass the savings to you.

Note: Due to the porous nature of their construction, clay lamps will absorb oil for a while.  This is normal.  Some people pour melted paraffin into the lamp prior to using it to seal the pores.  This does not hurt the lamp at all.  In fact, you can even burn bees wax in these lamps if you so desire.
