Standing Samai / पितळी समई

  • It is a vertical brass Samai, around 150 years old.
  • The technique used to make this Samai is of the recent time.
  • The Samai’s base is broad and accommodates seven wicks at a time. A lid covers the wick holder.
  • This prevents the oil from spilling out and help the wicks to burn for a long duration.

Specialties:

  • The specialty is the wick holder’s height adjustment according to different sitting positions. It ensures that the light is evenly spread, even in the corners, due to such vertical adjustment.
  • The lamp accommodates seven wicks at the same time.
  • The lamp’s top has a designer handle that facilitates easy lifting and movement of the lamp in different locations.
