Description
Bring nature and tradition together with this hand painted clay diya. Made from natural terracotta by skilled artisans, this mann vilakku has a beautiful peepal leaf design at the back, which makes it look fresh and unique.
The leaf is shaped with raised veins painted in bright yellow, over a rich green colour that looks like a real leaf. In front, there is a deep round yellow bowl with a small spout to hold oil and a wick. A metal hook on the top lets you hang the diya on a wall, door or stand, or you can place it on a table, shelf or floor.
The peepal tree (arasa maram) is a holy tree in Indian culture and is believed to be the home of the gods. Lighting a diya with a peepal leaf design is believed to bring peace, good health and blessings to the home. As each diya is handmade and hand painted, the colour and design may vary slightly.
