Tea Light Lamp - Jālī ~ Shah Jahani Place Mats and folklore in vivid coloursThe earliest places of worship in India were often dimly lit, confined spaces resembling natural caves. Harsh daylight entering these temples was filtered and softened by stone carved screens known as jl. These jls created mesmerising patterns of light and shadow. These little lamps are inspired by some of the most beautiful jl patterns seen in India. Easy to assemble they are flat packed in a beautiful gift box. The jl lamp makes for a perfect gift
