40" Kerala Vilakku Brass Oil Lamp for Pooja

This 40-inch Kerala Vilakku Pooja Oil Lamp commands presence in any prayer space or home sanctuary. The traditional vilakku form, with its distinctive flared base and elevated oil bowl, is cast in brass and rendered at an impressive height that makes it a focal point rather than an accent. The silhouette follows the authentic Kerala temple design, where the lamp's proportions are meant to hold oil and flame for extended periods during religious observances and daily pooja rituals.

Hand cast in brass, this lamp develops a warm patina over time that deepens its character. At nearly 18 kilograms and standing 40 inches tall with an 11-inch square footprint, it commands a substantial space and works best on the floor of a dedicated prayer room, puja altar, or as a sculptural statement in an entry hall or living space where its traditional form can be properly appreciated.
