Provenance
Three glass tealight cups set on a printed wooden base with a gold-tone finish — from the North Indian tradition of decorated votive candleware. The Prabha votives are named not for light itself but for light's effect on its surroundings: prabha (from the Sanskrit root pra + bha, to shine forth) names the radiance that appears around a flame, the glow that the lamp casts on the wall, the luminosity visible between the source of light and the darkness it touches. In Sanskrit literature, prabha names the halo of the divine, the moonlight's glow, the beloved's face in firelight.
Three glass votives on a printed wooden base: the tealight flame is the source; the prabha is what happens around it. The gold-tone base catches and deepens the warmth; the glass diffuses it into the room. The object named Prabha is named for the quality it produces, not the thing it contains.
Disclaimer
- Glass tealight cups are individually fitted. Minor variations in placement are expected.
- The printed wooden base may show slight colour variations — a natural feature of the handcrafted process.
