The Story Behind the Piece
Deepam was born from a simple idea where in every Indian home, there is a corner that holds a moment, a memory, or a prayer. A place where a single flame, like a candle or a diya, brings warmth, peace, and presence.
Deepam captures that feeling in a sculptural form a soft, glowing light inspired by tradition but made for modern living. It is a way to hold on to what matters.
This luminous collectible is inspired by the architectural form of the Vimana, the crown-like structure of South Indian temples. Its soft, opaline glow feels like a reminder of rituals we grew up with, stories we heard from our grandparents, and the strength of symbols that guide us.
Unique Features and Craftsmanship
Today’s design-conscious homes seek meaning beyond beauty. Deepam fits perfectly into this shift where collectible décor doubles as cultural storytelling.
- The silhouette borrows from the Vimana found atop many Dravidian-style temples – symbolic of the journey from the earthly to the divine. It taps into a growing trend of cultural minimalism in design where heritage is interpreted through clean forms.
- Made using borosilicate glass, known for its durability and clarity, the white opaline finish gives Deepam a soft diffused glow.
- Each piece is handblown by skilled artisans, preserving the nuances of handmade craft, a highly valued quality today where consumers are moving away from mass production towards mindful pieces.
- The brushed brass base lends weight and heritage appeal, resonating with the popularity of metallic accents in luxury interiors.
