Makale kapsamında İzmir Arkeoloji Müzesi envanterine kayıtlı on beş bronz eser incelenmiştir. Çalışılan eserler aydınlatma araçları ve buhurdanlar olmak üzere iki farklı grup altında değerlendirilmiştir. Müzede bulunan aydınlatma araçları; kandiller, kandilin üzerine oturduğu kandelabrum gövdesi, yağ haznesi parçaları ve polykandilion askısı olmak üzere sınıflandırılmıştır. Bizans dönemine tarihlenen bronz kandiller; evlerin, resmi binaların ve kiliselerin aydınlatılmasında kullanılmıştır. Bizans İmparatorluğu dönemine tarihlenen bronz buhurdanlar, kısaca ayin esnasında kokulu bitkilerin ve ağaç kabukların yakıldığı kaplardır. Bizans döneminde buhurdanlar, farklı törenler ve ayinlerde kullanılmıştır. Bizans toplumunun günlük yaşamında yer alan geleneksel objesi konumundadır. Bir örnek dışında buluntu yerleri bilinmeyen, müzeye satın alma ve müsadere yoluyla kazandırılan bu eserlerin tarihlendirme önerileri de çok yakın benzerleri üzerinden yapılmıştır. Arkeolojik alanların Bizans tabakalarında olduğu kadar, müzeler ve özel koleksiyonlarda sıklıkla yer alan objeler Bizans günlük ve dini yaşamına ilişkin somut belgeler olarak Bizans yaşam kültürü ve alışkanlıklarını algılamayı kolaylaştırmaktadır. Makale içinde ayrıntılı olarak ele alınan bu eserler makale sonunda katalog bilgileri ile tanıtılmaktadır.
