Shiv Parivar Idols, Small Size
About this collection
A Shiv Parivar idol shows the family group together, so small versions are popular for a home mandir where a full set would crowd the shelf. The group is wider than a single figure, so check the base size and the weight before deciding where it will stand. Brass is the heavier, solid choice, while aluminium is lighter and easier to move.
Place the group on a firm, level shelf where the figures are not pushed against each other. Clean the small carvings with a soft brush, then wipe with a dry cloth, since water left in the detail dulls the metal over time. Lift the group by its base rather than by an arm or a figure, since the small parts can bend.

Good to know
Can the small Shiv Parivar go on a desk?
Yes, a small group suits a desk shrine if it sits on a flat tray and is not pushed to the edge.
Is aluminium a good choice for this group?
Aluminium is lighter and easy to move for cleaning, while brass is solid and heavier.
Does the group need a special stand?
A firm, level shelf is enough. Check the base so the figures sit without rocking.
