Deity Idols, 8 to 15 inch, Above ₹5,000
About this collection
Brass deity idols of this height and band are finished pieces for a home temple, a large shelf or a gift for a special occasion. Above this band the castings are heavier, so the weight is a fair guide to how solid a piece is. The base matters most: a steady stand that takes the full weight keeps the figure upright.
Almost all pieces are brass, and each listing names the metal and gives the weight. Lift a heavy idol by the base with help, dust the detail with a soft brush, and keep the stand dry.

Good to know
Which size suits a home temple?
A piece near the middle of this range suits a home temple, since it can be seen clearly without filling the shelf. Measure the shelf first.
Is a large brass deity idol very heavy?
The weight rises with the size, and the largest pieces weigh several kilos. Check the listing and make sure the surface can carry it.
How should brass be cleaned?
Use a soft brush for the detail and a dry cloth for the surface. Use mild soap only for marks.
