The tiger is cast in a crouching position with its tail curled upwards and its mouth open in a fierce snarl. The body is decorated with indented ribs and swirled designs to the front and back haunches. The oil lamp is cast in the form of a recumbent ram with intricately rendered facial features and horns. The ram's back forms the cover and is attached to the back of the head with a hinge.
The largest, 8 in. (20.4 cm.) wide
