Description

Two brass nilavilakku, the lamp lit at dusk in every Kerala home, either side of your name.

From Kerala: the gold nettipattam of the temple elephants, the brass nilavilakku lit at dusk, the sloping roofs of the tharavad and the coconut palms along the backwaters. Wide and low, the classic shape for the centre of a flat door.
