Description
Light up your home in the traditional way with this hand painted terracotta diya. Made from natural clay by skilled artisans, this mann vilakku brings a divine and festive feel to your pooja room and home.
The diya has a deep round bowl in front to hold oil and a wick, with a small spout for the flame. At the back, there is a beautiful carved peacock with swirl designs and a fan-like tail. The whole piece is hand painted in bright yellow and orange, with red and black lines that make the carving stand out. A small metal hook on the top lets you hang the diya on a wall, door or stand, or you can simply place it on a table or floor.
Lighting a clay diya is a holy tradition in Indian homes. It is believed to remove darkness and negative energy, and invite peace, light and the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi. As each diya is handmade and hand painted, the colour and design may vary slightly.
