    Anything you can tell me about this antique oil lamp will be greatly appreciated. I think its ceramic and has interesting design carved into it but I don't know if the design represents anything significant.

      Oil lamp and these are still being produced today to look old and sold to tourists. I would say it is not antique but a reproduction . A example below . Several countries used them often called Greek Oil Lamps but were made by others also
