See the magic come alive in the dark when you place a tealight inside the stone sculpture. The intricately carved patterns get imposed on the surface, on which you keep the sculpture. he candle/tealight holder has been handmade in traditional Indian jali work or openwork carving (intricate latticework having a pattern of openings), hand-carved by artisans in Agra, the city of the Taj Mahal, also famous for stone carving and inlay-work handicrafts.
