Product Description
Crafted in 1971, this solid antique brass samai (traditional standing oil lamp) features a tall, slender central pillar set upon a sturdy stepped pedestal base. The top section boasts a multi-wick oil reservoir designed to hold cotton wicks, crowned by an elegant decorative finial. Historically, standing brass samais held sacred significance in Indian households and temples, lit during daily prayers, festive occasions, and auspicious ceremonies to symbolize purity and positive energy.
Benefits of solid brass construction include exceptional stability, long-lasting durability, and a warm golden sheen that deepens into a rich aged patina over time. Today, this heavy 2.36 kg piece serves as a timeless accent for spiritual and home decor. Display it in your pooja room, place it alongside festive floral arrangements, or feature it in an entryway to bring traditional warmth and historic beauty to your space.
