Lakshmi and Laxmi Ganesh, 8 to 15 inch, Above ₹5,000
About this collection
Lakshmi idols and Laxmi Ganesh pieces from 8 to 15 inch above this band are chosen for a pooja room, a console table or a home temple, where the figure is the focus of the corner. At this price the pieces are heavier and more finely worked, so the weight shows how solid the casting is. The thing that matters most is the base: a wide, stable foot keeps the figure upright, and a pair needs room for both figures.
Almost all pieces are brass, and each listing names the metal. Dust with a soft brush, wipe with a dry cloth, and keep the base dry. Lift a heavy figure by the base with help.

Good to know
Which size suits a console table?
A piece near the middle of this range suits a console, since both figures can be seen without filling the table. Measure the width first.
Is a brass Lakshmi idol heavy?
Brass is heavy, and the larger pieces weigh several kilos. Check the weight on the listing and make sure the table can carry it.
How should the detail be cleaned?
Use a soft brush for the detail and a dry cloth for the surface. Use mild soap only for marks.
