Vintage Indian Brass Peacock Wall Diya | Antique Oil Lamp Wall Mount Sculpture

£65.00

Bring a touch of timeless eastern heritage into your space with this stunning vintage hand-cast brass peacock wall diya.

Originally crafted in India to serve as a traditional oil lamp, this sculptural piece features a beautifully detailed, stylized peacock with an elegantly arched neck and tiered, fan-like tail feathers. In traditional Indian design, the peacock is a symbol of grace, beauty, and prosperity, making it a deeply meaningful accent piece for the modern home.

Beautifully heavy and dense, the diya was cast using traditional sand-molding techniques. The central hollow core serves as the historic oil reservoir, feeding down into a narrow wick spout nestled directly beneath the bird's beak.

Today, it serves as an exquisite piece of boho-chic wall art or a fully functional statement candle holder. It mounts effortlessly flush to the wall via two integrated hanging holes on the wing plates.

Condition: Excellent vintage condition. It features a gorgeous, naturally aged honey-gold patina with deep, darkened accents highlighting the intricate feather engravings. The interior cavity retains a light, authentic historic soot residue—adding wonderful character and proof of its past life and usage.
