Diya Stand – Oil Lamp Holder for Puja & Religious Rituals

A Diya Stand is a traditional religious accessory used to hold oil lamps (diyas) during Hindu puja, aarti, festivals like Diwali, and daily worship rituals. It provides a stable base for lighting diyas and enhances both spiritual ambiance and décor.

As a non-electric, physical household and religious utensil, a Diya Stand is correctly classified under Trademark Class 21 of the NICE Classification.

#⚖️ Why Diya Stand Falls Under Class 21

Trademark Class 21 covers:

• Household utensils and containers

• Articles made of metal, glass, ceramic, and similar materials

• Non-electric decorative and utility items

• Religious accessories used in homes and temples

Since a Diya Stand is:

• A physical object (non-consumable)

• Used for religious and household purposes

• Made from materials like brass, steel, clay, or ceramic

👉 It squarely falls under Class 21
