This lamp is a collector's item! This stunning multi-petaled diya has five small diyas resembling the petals of a flower. Since so many flames will naturally heat up the brass, this one has a long, elegant but sturdy handle by which you can hold this diya and perform the aarti during prayer.
When offering Arti, using a lamp with five wicks, the platter containing this lit lamp should be waved in a full circle in front of the Deity. Then it is circulated among the devotees in a devasthana or temple after the arti ceremony is performed to God. Then everybody passes their hands over the lighted lamp ( to take the warmth signifying God's blessings) and then over their forehead.
