Masterfully cast from solid brass, this classic tall pedestal lamp features an exquisitely detailed Annapakshi (mythical peacock) finial standing proudly at its crown. Below the bird, a deep, star-notched oil reservoir tray sits atop an ornate, multi-tiered central pillar.

Ornate Embossed Detailing: Features a multi-layered pillar design adorned with hand-carved floral vines, geometric ridges, and a beautiful textured scalloped collar directly beneath the oil bowl.

Star-Notched Oil Reservoir: The deep, wide-mouthed diya tray includes distinct pointed notches around the rim, designed to hold multiple cotton wicks symmetrically for a brilliant, multi-directional glow.

Quick Facts & Care
The Heritage of the Kutthuvilakku: Historically known as a Kutthuvilakku (or Nilavilakku) in South Indian heritage, this iconic pedestal lamp is a timeless symbol of purity, prosperity, and cosmic light. Traditionally placed at the center of courtyards or altars during weddings, harvest festivals, and grand inaugurations, lighting this lamp is an act of welcoming positive energy and divine abundance into a household.

The Legend of the Annapakshi Bird: The crown finial features the mythical Annapakshi bird, which represents grace, purity, and spiritual wisdom. According to ancient folklore, this sacred bird possesses the divine ability to separate milk from water, symbolizing the ultimate choice of virtue over negativity—making it an inspiring cultural presence for your living space.

Care Instructions: Allow the lamp to cool completely before cleaning. Wipe down gently with a soft, completely dry microfiber cloth to remove dust, oil droplets, or soot. Avoid using damp rags or harsh chemical cleaners, which can tarnish the metal or get trapped in the deep grooves of the embossed floral patterns. For a periodic deep traditional polish, a mild paste of tamarind and salt can be applied to the brass body, rinsed thoroughly, and dried immediately.
