Jaisalmeri Mehrab Diya Lantern

JAISALMER
Jaisalmer is also known as 'The Golden City' located in the heart of the Thar Desert of Rajasthan (the Great Indian Desert). The town stands on a ridge of yellowish sandstone and is crowned by the ancient Fort. This fort contains a royal palace and temples sculptured in sandstone.

MEHRAB
Mehrab or Arabic Mihrab means a niche in the wall of a mosque or a room in the mosque that indicates the direction of Mecca.
This is also a part of Islamic architecture. In every religion and culture, we can find many variations in this design.

Inspired by Mehrab's design and art of Jaisalmer our artisans created this beautiful lantern. Made out from a heavy wrought iron sheet, a golden polished lantern with an antique finish adds a heritage look to your decor.
With a combination of brass Diya, it always represents Sufi Orra of Jaisalmer culture we can also use a candle instead of a Diya lamp.

This is handcrafted by the local artisans of the west region of Rajasthan. This craft is made out of the wrought iron sheet with a combination of metallic black, golden, and copper polish. With the fusion of these three color coatings, artisans add a little vintage and heritage finish to this.
