— Premium Centre-Wick Altar Diya for Daily Prayers & Light Festivals —

Scalloped Lotus Design · High-Gloss Polish Finish · 3 Multi-Size Selection


This Lotus Border Centre-Wick Brass Diya brings a neat, classic look to your daily sacred routines. The upper rim of the oil bowl is designed with a beautiful, continuous scalloped border that mimics the opening petals of a sacred lotus flower. Unlike traditional side-spout lamps, this model features a built-in wick tube standing straight in the exact centre of the cup. This structural layout provides a perfectly balanced, upright vertical flame that spreads golden light evenly in all directions, making it a wonderful aesthetic choice for traditional home festivals.

💡 A Quick Note on Our Product Photos: To show you the beautiful craftsmanship and structural flexibility of this piece from multiple angles, some frames display two units side-by-side or show the components separated. Please note that all listed sizes, weights, and prices are strictly for a single piece, allowing you the absolute freedom to select the exact quantity needed for your home festival decor rows.


Practical Design, Vastu Benefits & Why It Is Kept at Home
  • Removable Wick Holder for Hindrance-Free Washing — A major practical advantage of this diya is that the internal central wick tube can be easily removed without any hindrances. When it is time for your weekly cleaning, you can simply lift or screw out the central pin, allowing you to scrub the flat bottom of the oil basin thoroughly without any awkward corners blocking your sponge.
  • Perfect for Festivals of Light — This compact cup series is explicitly created for extensive home decorations during major light celebrations like Diwali, Karthigai Deepam, and seasonal family functions. Its neat profile allows you to arrange multiple units in rows along your verandah walkways, stairs, or prayer room steps safely.
  • The Centre-Wick Advantage — The integrated centre wick stand holds your twisted cotton wick perfectly vertical. This stops the wick from sliding down or leaning against the side metal walls, ensuring a very clean, soot-free, and uniform burn that prevents oil from spilling over the sides.
  • Built for Lifelong Everyday Use — Notable for its heavy bottom base and thick walls, this robust brass cup handles extreme heat effortlessly without structural damage. It acts as an enduring family asset that handles regular daily morning and evening lighting for generations.
  • Auspicious Festive Gifting — Because these lamps are highly functional, beautifully finished, and available in flexible sizes, they serve as excellent traditional keepsakes for wedding return gifts, housewarmings, or festive giveaways for loved ones.

Sizing, Quality & Material Specifications
  • Thick Solid Premium Brass — Cast using premium-grade, heavy-gauge solid brass right in our specialised foundry workshops by our master craftsmen. The individual weights range from a solid 60 grams (Size 1) up to a heavy 100 grams (Size 3).
  • Generous Multi-Size Reservoirs — Calibrated with extra-deep circular basins that safely hold from 40 ml up to 60 ml of oil or ghee, allowing your sacred flame to burn undisturbed throughout your extended evening prayer services.
  • Flawless Polished Appearance — Finished with a smooth, high-gloss golden lustre that reflects the central flame beautifully, making it quick and simple to wipe clean after daily use.

Care & Cleaning Instructions to Keep Its New Look

Because pure raw brass naturally interacts with hot oils, intense heat, and atmosphere exposure, it will slowly develop dark spots over time. This shows the absolute purity of the metal. To keep it clean and golden without harsh chemicals, use these simple steps:

  • The Base Wash — Remove the central wick tube completely. Wash the lamp cup and the pin using Sabeena cleaning powder and a soft sponge to easily wipe away sticky oil residue and soot after your prayers. Do not use steel wire scrubbers.
  • 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 scalloped lotus grooves.

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.
