The delicately scented Deepti jasmine Dalit candle vessel resembles the round clay drinking cups that are still widely used around rural India in chai shops and coffee houses. From a mud the hands of a skilled potter create a work of art that will go onto grace perhaps the table or window sills around the world.

Not just a candle...You are not just purchasing a candle, you are supporting work with street children and the Dalit people of India. For over 3000 years the Dalits – or Untouchables – have been positioned at the bottom of India's society and are subject to the most aggressive and dehumanising abuse, they are born into a culture that devalues them from birth. Please help us make a difference.
