  <dc:description>This is a spirit lamp burner composed of a glass jar and a screw brass burner fitting with a canvas cord, which was supposed to be immersed in burning liquid.  The item usually came with a lid, which in this case is missing.  Corrosion and dust are present.  This type of lamp was used during urine testing as heat source for sterilisation, concentration, and controlled reactions.</dc:description>
