Greek Satyr Oil Lamp

Based on the design of  an original found by archaeologists in Cyprus that is now part of the collections at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. 

Made in the Hellenistic period, the lamp is decorated with rosettes and a satyr’s head, and we think he is rather fabulous. 

Part human and part horse Satyrs are often associated with Dionysos, the fun-loving God of wine, music, dancing and partying. 

Approx 90mm long
