Hand-Held Brass Puja Diya with Fish Handle

This hand-held puja diya combines practical form with decorative charm, designed for daily ritual use. Cast in brass, the oil lamp features a slender, elongated body topped with a functional open cup for wick and oil. The handle curves gracefully into the silhouette of a fish, a motif that carries significance in Hindu and Indian tradition while adding visual character to this everyday sacred object.

Hand cast in brass, the diya presents with warm metallic tones that deepen with age and use. At 10 inches in width, it fits comfortably in the palm, making it ideal for carrying during morning or evening prayers, or for placement on an altar or prayer shelf without demanding much space.
