The Crystal Brass Diya is a small, flat flower-shaped lamp: a polished brass oil bowl on a short brass foot, ringed by two rows of faceted acrylic crystals set in gold-plated wire. It measures 9 cm across and 3 cm high, with a 4 cm bowl for ghee or oil. Light it and the crystals catch the flame, so a single small diya fills the mandir with sparkle.

Choose a single for your daily aarti, a pair to flank the mandir, or a set of 10 to line a Diwali rangoli, a Navratri thali or a doorway.

Why this diya

Lighting a diya is how most Hindu homes open and close the day, and on festival nights it is the whole atmosphere. This one keeps the tradition simple - a real brass bowl and a steady flame - and adds a ring of crystals that throws soft points of light around it. Because it sits flat and low, it is at home on a pooja thali, a mandir step, a console or the edge of a rangoli.

Choose your pack

• Single - one diya for daily aarti or a desk mandir.
• Pair - two diyas to place on either side of your deity. Qualifies for free UAE delivery on its own.
• Set of 10 - for Diwali, Navratri and Dhanteras decor, or as return gifts for a Griha Pravesh or pooja.

How to light it

1. Place the diya on a flat, heat-safe surface.
2. Thread a cotton wick into the brass wick holder in the centre of the bowl.
3. Pour a little ghee or diya oil into the bowl and let the wick soak for a minute.
4. Keep the wick short and upright, then light it.

The bowl is small, so this diya suits aarti and evening lighting rather than an all-night akhand jyot. Keep the flame centred in the bowl and away from the crystal ring, and never leave a lit diya unattended.

Frequently asked questions

How big is this diya?

It is 9 cm across and 3 cm high, with a 4 cm oil bowl in the centre. It rests comfortably in the palm of your hand.

Are the crystals real crystal or glass?

They are faceted acrylic stones set in gold-plated wire. They are chosen for sparkle, not as healing crystals, and they are light and less likely to chip than glass.

Can I use ghee or oil?

Yes, either works. Thread a cotton wick into the brass holder, add a little ghee or diya oil and let the wick soak before lighting.

Can I burn it all night as an akhand diya?

The 4 cm bowl holds enough for aarti and evening lighting, not a full night. For an akhand jyot, choose a larger lamp with a bigger oil reservoir.

Which pack should I buy for Diwali?

The set of 10 works best for Diwali and Navratri, as it lets you line a rangoli, a window or an entrance. For a single mandir, a pair is usually enough.

Does it make a good return gift?

Yes. Each diya comes in its own box, so the set of 10 is easy to hand out as return gifts after a Griha Pravesh, a pooja or a Diwali get-together.

How do I keep it looking new?

Wipe it once it has cooled, polish the brass bowl occasionally and keep cleaners away from the acrylic stones. Store it in its box when not in use.
