Oil lamp from handmade glass in four colours

A beautiful oil lamp from handmade fused glass. The fused glass is a handmade production process of flat glass kilns, using molds for the creation of the shapes of the glass. Colours melt and pass through in the mass of the glass giving it a high quality and aesthetic. Glass fusing is a term used to describe glass that has melted in a kiln at a range of high temperatures from 593 ° C to 816 ° C.

This technique can be applied to a task to separate heating glass to add depth, texture and form. This oil lamp comes in four different colours so you can choose the one you like. Because of its high quality this oil lamp can be a great present for our relatives or friends.

What does the oil lamp symbolizes

According to Orthodox tradition we have a burning oil lamp in our house as a sign of respect to God, Virgin Mary and Saints. The burning oil lamp is a practice with a strong Christian symbolism, as this particular light is likened to the Light of Jesus Christ that lights up every person, while at the same time reminds us that we, Christians, must be the lights of this world. The flame on the oil lamp reminds us that our faith is light.

The oil lamp also reminds us the need of praying and helps us to enlighten the room and send the darkness and evil away. Our oil lamp is a piece of offering and gratitude with which we thank God for our life, salvation and for everything He offers to us with His great love. According to traditions the oil of the oil lamp must be premium quality olive oil.
