灯笼 - 黄铜色 - Pancha Alati 19世纪

Authentic Indian ritual oil lamp (Diya or Pancharati) from the 19th century, cast in bronze, characterized by a structure with two circular bases connected by a horizontal arm. The long branch-shaped handle, united to the main body by a decorative knot, is a classic design widely seen in central and western India (regions such as Maharashtra or Gujarat).
The front features a cup for oil topped by a domed perforated cover (jali) that serves both as incense diffuser (dhoop) and as protection for the inner flame.
The dark appearance, surface roughness, and oxidation patina indicate an object that has undergone long ritual use or prolonged exposure to the elements, consistent with artifacts dating from the late 19th or early 20th century.
