content: Brass butter lamp. Flared bowl on top, narrow stem, and smaller flared base. Vertical leaf (?) pattern on the base. Slight circular lines etched both outside and in. Put yellow oil inside (oil from animals, usually sheep). Yellow oil is clean in the sense that it does not give off much black smoke. Every family has a couple of these lamps, the size varies (Video Footage, Tape 4, 7/10/02).
