The form of this lamp is immediately associated with Mamluk Syrian enamelled glass lamps, but fragments of an example of very similar form were also discovered at Nishapur (Jens Krüger, Nishapur, Glass of the Early Islamic Period, New York, 1995, no.235, p.182). The same form is also depicted in a stone relief at Kharraqan dating from 1067-8 AD (Krüger, op.cit., p.179). An almost identical lamp was sold in these Rooms 20 April 1999, lot 521.
