Whale Oil Lamp
The Whale Oil Lamp by an unknown artist features a clear glass lamp with a conical-shaped body that tapers towards the top. The lamp has a wide, flat base and a short stem with ornate details in the middle. A small, circular metal piece with two small black protrusions sits atop the glass. The lamp appears to be made of transparent glass. The background is a plain white surface with a subtle gradient.
