Singhasan, Chowki and Mandir, 4 to 8 inch
About this collection
Mandirs, chowkis and singhasans in this middle size are the settings and seats for a home shrine, so the piece is chosen to suit the figures it holds. Most are brass, and a mandir needs enough room inside for the idol to stand without touching the sides. The thing that matters most is the base: a flat, wide platform keeps the piece steady on a wooden shelf.
Almost all pieces are brass, and each listing names the metal. Dust the detail with a soft brush, wipe with a dry cloth, and keep the surface dry so the finish does not mark. Lift a heavier piece by its base, with help.
Also searched as: brass mandir 4 inches, brass mandir 7 inches, brass singhasan 6 inches, brass chowki 6 inches.

Is a brass mandir heavy?
Weights vary, and the heavier pieces need a firm shelf. Check the weight on the listing before you place it.
How should brass be cleaned?
Dust with a soft brush and wipe with a dry cloth. Use mild soap only for marks.
