Frequently asked questions
How wide is this 2.5-inch Annapurneshwari murti?
It is 4 cm wide and 4 cm deep, with a longest side of 6 cm, and weighs 100 grams. The slim profile leaves room for a diya and flowers on a small mandir shelf.
Will this brass murti tarnish over time?
Brass slowly darkens when exposed to air and moisture. A gentle clean with lemon, tamarind or Pitambari powder every few weeks, followed by drying, brings back the golden shine.
