The Brass Kuber Diya with Turtle Base is a traditional Indian lamp made of brass, that has a small turtle base at the bottom. The Kuber Diya is named after Kuber, the Hindu god of wealth and prosperity. The turtle is considered a symbol of good luck and longevity in Indian culture. Every puja includes the lighting of the lamp or jyoti for the aarti, which is conducted after the puja. The handmade Kuber diya is used in every puja. The lamp's (diya) flame, Jyoti, is fascinating for two reasons. In addition to being constantly upward, it first eliminates darkness. Jyoti's ascending movement represents both the intelligent and divine paths. The base of the diya features a unique tortoise pattern, and it has lovely carvings.

Lighting a lamp is one of the oldest parts of daily pooja in Indian homes. It is traditionally lit at dawn and at dusk in front of the deity, a reminder to begin and end the day with prayer.

• Traditionally lit every day in the pooja room, and on festival days such as Karthigai Deepam and Deepavali.
• Lamps made for a particular deity are traditionally lit on the days linked with that deity.
• The lit lamp is kept in front of the deity during pooja, aarti and japa.
• A traditional gift for weddings, house-warmings and festivals.

• Place the lamp on a flat, heat-safe plate or stand, away from curtains, paper and flowers.
• Use ghee, gingelly oil or lamp oil with cotton wicks. Fill to below the rim so the oil does not overflow.
• Light the lamp at dawn or at dusk in front of the deity, as is the custom in many homes.
• Never leave a lit lamp unattended, and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
• Once it has cooled, wipe away oil and soot with a soft cloth. Wash with mild soap or a little lemon juice, rinse and dry fully before storing.
