A tall, narrow doorway frame, painted in fading shades of blue, marks the entrance to M.A. Mannan and Company. Tucked among the dense, winding lanes of the Tilbhandeshwer neighborhood, this shop functions as an antique dealer and a specialized hub for traditional metalwork. For generations, the family behind the counter has curated a collection of brass oil lamps and old incense burners salvaged from households across the city. Many of these objects arrived here during the slow transition toward modern electric lighting.
