— Heritage Tiny Flat-Bottom Oil Lamp for Daily Fasting & Mass Festive Gifting —

Sleek Parallel Ring Base · Traditional Single Wick Spout · 1.5 cm Height

This Classic Mini Altar Agal Diya brings a highly practical, timeless design to your daily prayer routines and major festive layouts. Molded into a sleek, extra-compact round cup profile with a traditional single drawn-out wick spout nose, this lightweight lamp is engineered specifically to handle ritual counts that require multiple flames. Cast from pure premium brass with a steady flat bottom detailed with fine horizontal turning rings, it sits perfectly flush on flat surfaces, making it a beautiful, unbreakable alternative to single-use clay deepams.

Ritual Multi-Lamp Counts, Look & Why It Is Must-Have
  • Engineered for Sacred Ritual Counts — The extra-compact size and lightweight profile make it the perfect selection for completing specific puranic multi-lamp offerings on your altar without cluttering the tray:
    • 6 Diyas for Lord Murugan — Lit beautifully during Sashti or Karthigai days to invoke the protection of Skanda.
    • 8 Diyas for Ashtalakshmi — Arranged in a sacred circle or row to invite absolute wealth and domestic luck.
    • 9 Diyas for Navagraha Shanti — Lit on special Saturdays or festival days to balance planetary directions.
  • The Perfect Mass Festive Return Gift — Because these mini lamps are highly functional, beautifully polished, and built with a lifetime expectancy, they serve as the absolute best traditional keepsakes to distribute to guests during grand housewarmings, traditional weddings, Navratri Golu, or Diwali gatherings.
  • Stable Flat-Bottom Threshold Layout — Boasting a neat 2.8 cm flat base diameter, these cups fit safely on entry steps, central courtyard paths, or inside small home maadam wall niches during Karthigai Deepam festival nights.
  • Unbreakable Everlasting Metal — Unlike standard fragile clay lamps that crack from intense heat or cannot be reused next season, this strong solid brass construction remains a permanent devotional asset for your family prayers for years.
Sizing, Quality & Material Specifications
  • Thick Solid Premium Brass Build — Cast from heavy-gauge, durable solid brass metal that handles high heat effortlessly, retaining its structure through thousands of daily morning and evening prayer cycles.
  • 10 ml Capacity Oil Basin — The smooth, high-gloss inner basin safely pools a 10 ml oil capacity, providing the perfect calibrated volume for everyday single cotton wick prayers without unnecessary waste.
  • Flawless Polished Appearance — Finished with a smooth golden mirror luster that reflects the active flame beautifully, making it quick and simple to wipe clean of oily soot after daily use.

Simple Care & Washing Instructions

Because this compact solid piece is used for daily ritual layouts, regular cleaning keeps its mirror-gold shine looking pristine:

  • The Base Wash — Wash the lamp cup using Sabeena cleaning powder and a soft sponge to easily wipe away sticky soot and oil residue after your prayers. Do not use steel wire wool.
  • Restoring the Temple Glow — Rub a small amount of fresh tamarind paste or fresh lemon juice mixed with fine salt over the inner and outer brass surfaces. The natural fruit acid instantly dissolves dark spots and brings back the bright shine.
  • Wipe It Dry Immediately — Always dry the structure completely using a soft towel immediately after rinsing so that water drops do not leave uneven white mineral spots inside the smooth bowl basin.

Care & Maintenance

Made from super fine quality brass with a golden powder coated polish — gives a satin gold glow like a gold statue. Purely for decor and dry display. If used for pooja rituals, the golden polish layer will peel off over time. Keep it dry — and it will look as fresh as the day you bought it. Always.

No restrictions for pooja rituals. Avoid harsh chemicals to preserve its traditional antique look. The dark patina is intentional — it deepens the beauty over time.

Powerful. Preferred for active pooja rituals — no restrictions. Traditional Cleaning Method: Use dara liquid and cashew nut seeds — an ancient method used by temple priests for generations. Gently rub with cashew nut seeds dipped in dara liquid. Rinse clean. Your idol will look brand new. Cleaning once every 30 days is recommended if used regularly for pooja.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand this completely. You are buying online from a shop you have never visited. Here is the truth: Sri Swaminathan & Co has been standing at 61, Bakthapuri Street, Kumbakonam since 1973 — over 53 years. We are not a warehouse or a reseller. We are a family shop, rooted in Kumbakonam, where priests, temples, and devotees from across Tamil Nadu have been coming for generations. Travellers from Singapore, Malaysia, UK, and USA visit us when they come to Kumbakonam — because they know us. You can walk into our shop any day. We are real.
Because most sites sell products. We sell legacy. Every item in our shop — whether it is a small brass lamp or a 4-foot Panchaloha idol — comes from craftsmen whose families have been doing this since the Chola period. We do not source from factories. We do not compromise on material or finish to reduce price. When you buy from us, you are not just getting a product — you are getting 53 years of trust, traditional craftsmanship, and the assurance that what you receive is exactly what a devotee deserves.
This is a fair concern and we respect it. Here is why we do not offer COD — our products are handcrafted, fragile, and carefully packed for safe delivery. COD returns damage both the product and the trust. Instead, we offer something better: WhatsApp us before you order. We will send you a video of the actual product — the exact piece you will receive. You can ask us anything. Only when you are fully satisfied, you pay. Our 53-year reputation is our guarantee — we cannot afford to let even one customer down.
Not at all — and we are glad you asked this. Our products are made of brass and Panchaloha — metals that naturally catch and reflect light from every angle. What you see as dark shades or bright reflections in photos is simply the metal doing what metal does — glowing, reflecting, and shining. We photograph every product as-is, with no filters, no AI, no editing. That reflection you see in the photo? You will see the same beautiful glow when it sits in your pooja room. It is not a defect — it is the character of real metal.
Yes — and here is why we say this with full confidence. Panchaloha idols require the right alloy, the right casting method, and the right finishing — done by craftsmen who understand the spiritual significance of what they are making. Our Panchaloha idols are hand-cast in Kumbakonam and Swamimalai by hereditary artisans using the traditional lost-wax method — the same method used to make idols for consecrated temples across South India. Priests trust our idols for temple installation. Families trust us for home pooja rooms. In 53 years, that trust has never been broken.
