"Lamp" is a silver oil lamp created between 1830 and 1838 by American silversmith Allen Porter. Standing at 10 inches tall, the lamp features a bulbous reservoir, a slender stem with a decorative band, and a circular base. The lamp is a fine example of early 19th-century American silversmithing and is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The lamp's design highlights Porter's craftsmanship and reflects the simple elegance of the period.
