Iron Samai and Table Lamps
About this collection
Iron samai and table lamps are the plainer, sturdier option for a puja table or a corner shelf. The chimney and the stem lift the flame to a clear height, and the iron body suits a home with a traditional or rustic style. It suits a shelf beside the murtis and needs little space.
Iron needs drying after every wash, since moisture can cause rust. Wipe the lamp with a dry cloth after each lighting, clear soot from the chimney, and keep the lamp in a dry place. A light coat of oil on the stored surface helps prevent rust.
