About this piece

This Ganesh ji idol is cast in aluminium and stands 8.5 inches high. It is polished and made in Moradabad, and sized for a pooja room. The figure is finished with clean detail.

Wipe with a soft dry cloth and keep it dry. Aluminium scratches easily, so use no scouring pads. It is a fitting gift for Ganesh Chaturthi or a new home.

The craft

Moradabad. Cast, hammered and lacquered by hand, for three hundred years.

Sand cast, hand engraved, lacquer finished.

How it is made

Brass is melted and poured into sand moulds, cooled, then turned on a lathe to true the shape. Engravers cut the pattern by hand with a hammer and chisel. The piece is polished on a buffing wheel and sealed with a clear lacquer so it stays bright without weekly cleaning.

Care, shipping and returns

Wipe with a dry cloth. Keep away from detergents and damp. Handmade pieces vary slightly in finish, that is the point.

Dispatch in 1 to 3 working days from India by tracked courier. Shipping is charged by parcel weight and shown at checkout. Import duties and taxes, if any, are collected by the courier on delivery.

Good to know

All Idols and Murtis

Which size idol suits a home mandir?

3 to 5 inch for a shelf mandir, 6 to 10 inch for a pooja room, 12 inch and up for a temple or entrance. Height is on every listing; allow 6 inches of clear space around a large idol.

Is this idol solid brass?

Yes, sand cast in our Moradabad workshop, polished and lacquered. The weight in grams on the listing is the honest measure; thin sheet idols weigh half as much.

How do I clean a brass idol?

Lacquered idols: a soft dry cloth. Raw brass: lemon and salt or tamarind pulp, rinse, dry at once. No steel wool, no acid soak beyond ten minutes.

Can I use it for daily puja and for festivals?

Yes. Brass idols are permanent; they are bathed, dressed and worshipped year after year and are not immersed.

Is gift packing available?

Yes, every idol ships in a rigid box with a card slot, dispatched within two working days, COD across India.

Why choose aluminium over brass for a Ganesh idol?

Aluminium is lighter and costs less than brass, so it suits a shelf that you move often. At 8.5 inch it still has a clear presence on a pooja room shelf.

Is it a good gift for a new home?

An 8.5 inch Ganesh in aluminium is practical to carry and place on a shelf, which suits a housewarming. The recipient can give it a place in their own mandir.
