About this piece
Cotton wicks (batti) are the thin rolls of cotton lit in a diya of ghee or oil. These are Om Phool Batti long white wicks, packed in a clear plastic box with a printed label.
The seller says the wicks keep their shape after dipping in ghee or oil, and lists the length as about 4 inches, though the diagram photo marks 3.5 inches. The title shows the count as 1000. The brand is made by Om Grih Udyog. Check the count with the seller.
How it is used
One end of the wick is dipped in ghee or oil and set in a diya, and the other end is lit. Long wicks like these are used in most home puja lamps, and in a larger lamp the wick can be folded.
