Dear reader, welcome, I am glad to have you here. As the text in the banner says, this blog is a window into the world of Indian lamps. In India, worship is incomplete without a traditional oil lamp. Innumerable varieties of lamps are created in various media in the sub-continent. I have tried to give concise information on lamps as well as the annual exhibition of lamps. Please feel free to comment. I would be glad to answer any of your queries or doubts. If there are any mistakes please bring it to my knowledge. Thank you. Enjoy reading.
Note: Lamps featured here are available at 'Ramsons' the largest handicraft shop of Mysore. The shop is right in front of Zoo (Chamarajendra Zoological Gardens) a famous tourist destination in Mysore. Contact: +91-821-2443669. Email: ramsonsmysore@yahoo.com
