The traditional lamp with an image of a lady holding a Diya is known as Deepalakshmi, it is also known as a Pavai diya or Vilaku Lakshmi. This type of Diya was said to be particularly popular during the Pandya dynasty. These Diyas were intended to illuminate the way leading to a temple or a certain god. The lamp's major feature is a standing lady holding a diya. She is depicted wearing opulent attire symbolizing her status of bringing prosperity. The simple Diya that she holds contains a single wick. This Diya is ideal to place beside an image of a deity and is generally bought in pairs.
