Aluminium Idols: Lightweight God Statues and Wall Hangings

This page holds 265 aluminium idols from ₹175, in sizes up to 44 inch. Every piece here is aluminium, not brass. Half of them cost ₹1,155 or less, and the largest go up to ₹59,950.

Be clear on what aluminium is. It is cast in Moradabad in the same way as brass, but the metal is much lighter and lower priced. The colour you see is a painted or plated finish over the casting, often in gold, silver or bright colours. That makes it a sensible choice in three cases: a wall hanging, where low weight is a real advantage; a large idol on a small budget; and a piece for a shop, office or event where it will be seen more than handled. On this page there is a Ganesh in a pagadi at 7.5 inch, a Panchmukhi Hanuman at 5.8 inch, a Krishna with flute at 4 inch, a Laddu Gopal on a jhula at 6.5 inch and 300 g, wall hangings of Buddha at 8.4 inch and Shreenath Ji at 8 inch, and Laxmi Ganesh pairs. Weights run from 30 g to 23.38 kg.

Know the limits too. Do not use an aluminium idol for abhishek with acidic liquids such as lemon water, curd or panchamrit, because acid attacks both the finish and the metal. Plain water is fine if you dry the idol at once. Clean with a dry soft cloth only, with no lemon, tamarind or brass polish. If you want an idol for daily abhishek, or one to hand down, choose brass instead.
