About this piece
A small brass diya with a shallow bowl whose rim is shaped in scalloped petals, set above a round pedestal covered in a beaded pattern. The seller sells it through as a designer diya.
It stands 2 inches tall (5 cm) with a 2.7 inch (6.9 cm) width and weighs 117 g. The seller says its compact size suits an altar or a table top. Diwali in 2026 falls on 8 November.
How it is used
A diya is lit with oil or ghee and a wick on the altar, and many homes light many of them during Diwali. A small one like this suits a puja shelf or a tray.
Looking after it
- Wipe with a soft dry cloth.
- Clean off oil and soot with a brass cleaner when needed.
