Step into the elegance of tradition with this exquisite hanging brass oil lamp, beautifully sculpted in the form of the Annapakshi—a mythical peacock-like bird symbolizing purity and prosperity. Suspended by delicate chains and finished with ornate bird-motif hooks, this piece is more than lighting—it’s a celebration of artistry.
Each lamp is meticulously handcrafted by Indian artisans using the ancient “Lost Wax” casting method, a technique that has preserved fine details and spiritual symbolism for generations. The bird-shaped bodies ingeniously serve as oil chambers, their tail feathers designed to hold the wicks—blending function with timeless form.
More than a source of light, this lamp offers a portal to the soul of a South Indian courtyard, especially evocative during Diwali—the festival of lights. In Hindu tradition, lighting a brass lamp invokes divine energy, with brass itself forming a part of Panchaloha, the sacred five-metal alloy used in temple idols.
Ideal for indoor alcoves or serene garden spaces, this hanging lamp infuses your surroundings with an enduring vintage charm and the deep resonance of cultural heritage. Let it shine as both a luminous centerpiece and a symbol of sacred tradition.
Please note that vintage pieces come with small imperfections, that’s a part of its beauty and age.
