₹1,200.00 Add to cart Buy NowPENDANT LAMP
Hiraṇya-kūlāya, Sanskrit for 'golden nest', captures the moment when dawn's first light touches a weaver bird's nest, transforming it into a vessel of liquid gold. This sculptural pendant lamp extends our exploration of avian architecture and Dongria Kandha artistry, rendered in a luminous golden-bronze finish that adds a layer of luxury to its natural inspiration.
The lamp's graceful silhouette presents a more elongated interpretation of the weaver bird's nest, its slender form accentuating the vertical flow of light and shadow. The hand-carved ceramic body features an intricate network of openings that mirror the methodical weaving patterns of these master nest builders, while maintaining the characteristic precision of their architectural style.
The surface is enriched with the sacred triangular patterns of the Dongria Kandha tribe, now appearing as shimmering elements against the metallic finish. These geometric motifs catch and reflect light differently throughout the day, creating an ever-changing play of shadows and highlights that adds depth to the traditional patterns.
When illuminated, Hiraṇya-kūlāya creates a sophisticated interplay of warm light and metallic reflection. The golden-bronze finish amplifies the lamp's glow, casting both sharp sculptural shadows and subtle, shimmering reflections that transform spaces with an atmosphere of refined warmth.

KŪLĀYA CERAMIC PENDANT LAMP

Kūlāya, Sanskrit for 'bird's nest', pays homage to one of nature's most skilled architects – the weaver bird. This sculptural pendant lamp draws inspiration from the intricate nests that dot Odisha's landscape, while incorporating the sacred triangular motifs of the Dongria Kandha tribe, creating a harmonious blend of natural and cultural heritage.
The lamp's distinctive teardrop silhouette mirrors the elegant form of a weaver bird's nest, rendered in hand-crafted black ceramic. The intricate cutout patterns echo the methodical weaving techniques of these master avian architects, creating organic apertures that allow light to filter through like sunshine penetrating a nest's carefully woven chambers.
The surface is enriched with etched triangular patterns inspired by the traditional motifs of the Dongria Kandha tribe of Odisha. These sacred geometric elements, representing mountains and prosperity in Dongria Kandha culture, add a layer of cultural significance to the design.
When illuminated, Kūlāya casts enchanting shadows that transform surrounding spaces into a forest canopy dappled with light. The interplay between the nest-inspired cutouts and the tribal geometric etchings creates a dual layer of light play – bold organic shadows mixed with subtle geometric patterns that pay tribute to both natural and cultural inspirations.
Each Kūlāya pendant is individually sculpted and carved by master ceramicists who study both the intricate architecture of weaver bird nests and the traditional patterns of Dongria Kandha art. The result is a piece that honors both natural ingenuity and cultural heritage. The durable ceramic construction ensures lasting beauty with minimal maintenance.
