The image shows an ancient oil lamp made of terracotta. This lamp has a unique shape with two protrusions: one is a pointed spout where the flame would emerge, and the other is a handle or thumb-rest, designed for the ease of holding the lamp. At the rear end of the lamp, perpendicular to the spout is the filler hole where oil would be poured in. The lamp surface has decorative concentric circles near the wick hole and additional linear patterns. There also appears to be some sort of embossed emblem or figure on the upper part of the spout, which looks like it could be a bird or some symbolic design typical of the time and region from which the lamp originates. The lamp has an aged appearance with some surface wear and chipping, signs of historical usage, and time.
