Brass Figure Oil Lamps
About this collection
A brass figure oil lamp is a decorative lamp shaped as a figure, bought for a puja corner, an entrance or a living room where it stands as a feature. The size and weight vary, so choose by the table or floor space first. Each listing names the design in brackets, which tells you the figure.
Use ghee or oil in the lamp's bowl, keep the wick centred and the lamp away from curtains. Clean the soot and oil residue with warm water and soap, then dry the brass thoroughly. A figure lamp with fine detail needs a soft brush rather than a hard scrub.
