Hand-forged medieval bowl lamp with stand.
Here you can buy a hand-forged medieval bowl lamp from iron that is ideal for authentic lighting in the style of the Middle Ages.The medieval bowl lamp has a long spout that fits onto a separate stand. This allows you to place the lamp conveniently on a table or, without the base, on a stick stuck into the ground at any height.
Medieval bowl lamps were often equipped with a long metal spike, which is quite bulky and unwieldy. In addition, there were also bowl lamps for standing up in the Middle Ages, as shown by the bowl lamp from Sutton Hoo.

With the removable stand, the medieval bowl lamp can be used in either way.
The bowl lamp including the stand measures 21 x 14 cm.
You can also buy the medieval bowl lamp separately without the stand 16 Lamp Ose, or purchase the base separately 16 Staender Ose.
Medieval bowl lamps can be fuelled perfectly with wax remnants. A few small pieces of wood, or even better, a piece of dried tinder fungus, are sufficient as a wick.
Twisted cotton strips or old sackcloth can also be used as wicks. To extinguish the bowl lamp, simply place a wooden board over the opening to smother the flames.
Of course, medieval bowl lamps also work just as well with lamp oil, beeswax or tallow.
