A Kuthuvilakku, or traditional lamp, consists of four integral parts: the base (Keezh-bagam), stem (kandam),
oil container (Thanguli) with V-shaped spouts for wicks, and the apex (Prabai).
These components are meticulously assembled using screw threads.
The central pillar typically culminates in a bird motif such as the Hamsa or Swan.
Kuthuvilakkus are often adorned with ornate chains for suspension from ceilings, showcasing exquisite craftsmanship
and intricate design.
