Mould-made pottery Firmalampe: a lamp with a circular bowl-shaped body, a rounded shoulder, a small flat discus with a raised rim, and a long nozzle with a channel along the top and a rounded tip. The discus rim is interrupted by the nozzle channel, which forms a V-shaped channel between the discus and the wick-hole area. On the shoulder are three pierced lugs, one missing. An air-hole is pierced at the end of the nozzle channel. The discus is plain. The lamp stands on a base-ring with an internal moulding; within is the name STROBILI in relief.
