A gorgeous antique Indian diya oil lamp in a sculptural bird form, cast in heavy bronze with beautifully worked feather detailing and an elegant long tail. Designed to hang from its chain, it sits over an oval drip tray to catch oil, making it as practical as it is decorative. This is the kind of piece that instantly elevates a space—perfect for a shrine shelf, meditation corner, or as a statement object in a collected interior, and it taps straight into the current rise of spiritual decor, ritual objects, and “templecore” / global eclectic styling.

Condition is good antique condition with attractive age patina and surface wear consistent with age and use. It has a satisfying weight and presence in the hand, and displays beautifully either hung or posed as a sculptural curio.

Measures approximately 15 cm tall x 25 cm long (about 5.9" tall x 9.8" long) and weighs 1300 g (about 1.3 kg / 2.9 lb).
