Traditionally made with ash, sandalwood, vermillion, clay, or turmeric, it is worn on the forehead as a symbol of identity, protection, and belonging. Each form reflects a spiritual lineage within Hinduism, its shape and substance tied to the deity it honours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis tilak comes from the Iyengar Vaishnava tradition of South India. Its U-shaped white lines represent the lotus feet of Vishnu, curving gently over the bridge of the nose. In the centre runs a coloured line or flame (often yellow or red), symbolizing Lakshmi — his divine energy, love, and grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003ePainted as part of a vintage miniature series in natural stone colours, these tilaks are treasured pieces with a history of their own.
