The alabaster oil lamp was made in the form of an open lotus flower, is flanked by two ornamentations in which the god of the infinite, Heh, kneels on papyrus plants with his arms raised and holds a palm branch that frames the scene. When the lamp is lit, a transparent colored scene is created with Tutankhamun and his wife on one side and the kings' cartouches on the other. The effect is created when the wick is lit and scenes painted on a smaller cup inside the lamp become visible .
