Artisans painting him are working inside a set of conventions rather than inventing, which is why panels from different hands still read unmistakably as the same deity. The jewellery here is where individual skill shows — the crown, the necklaces and the ear ornaments are all raised and beaded by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it is made\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe relief is cut and layered in MDF, then painted freehand, with mirror pieces set in by hand. We call it Lippan art, and it is fair to be precise about why: traditional Lippan kaam from Kutch builds its relief in clay. This is a modern reading of that craft — the mirror inlay is the real thing, in glass, set by hand; the raised work underneath is wood board rather than mud.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it goes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePooja rooms, prayer corners, and entryways — many Vaishnav households place Shreenathji facing the door. It also holds an ordinary living-room wall well, because the composition is strong enough at a distance to work as a graphic image before you read it as a deity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHanging it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFittings are on the back. At 1.73 kg use a screw into a drywall anchor rather than a bare nail. Screws and anchors are not supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDust with a dry, soft brush, working around the raised crown and jewellery. Do not spray liquid at the surface — the mirror and bead work is set into relief.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the face raised or flat?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRaised. The face, crown and jewellery are cut and layered so they stand off the panel, then painted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this real Lippan?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is a modern interpretation. Traditional Lippan builds its relief in clay; here it is layered MDF. The mirror inlay is done the traditional way — by hand, in real glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it appropriate for a pooja room?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. It is a wall panel rather than a consecrated idol, so it carries no installation requirements. Hang it where it faces into the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich direction should it face?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThere is no rule we would presume to give you.

It is the largest and by some distance the heaviest Lippan piece we make, and the only one in white. The weight is clay: there is a great deal more relief on this panel than on the round ones, which is what lets a monochrome piece hold a wall.

It suits a coloured or textured wall better than a white one - against white the relief flattens out and you lose the shadow that makes it work.

The photographs show them grouped because that is how most people hang them, but each design is priced and sold separately. Add several to the cart for a group.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is Dahihandi?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Janmashtami custom of hanging a pot of curd and butter high off the ground for young men to reach by building a human pyramid - a re-enactment of Krishna stealing butter as a child. The medallion shows the pot on a lotus base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do the prices differ?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nSize and the amount of relief work. The 12-inch cow is the least expensive, the two 14-inch designs sit in the middle, and the 18-inch Dahihandi is the most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I hang them?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nEach has a hook on the back. At 570 to 840 g the 12 and 14 inch pieces take a heavy-duty pushpin. The 18-inch Dahihandi at 1,740 g wants a nail into a stud or a rated anchor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the mirrors real glass?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. Each abhla is a small cut glass mirror set into the clay by hand while it is still workable. They are not printed, and they are not plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill mine look exactly like the photographs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nClose, not identical. The relief is pressed out by hand and every mirror is placed individually, so spacing and line weight differ slightly from set to set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the clay work chip?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt can if a panel is knocked hard against something, in the same way plasterwork can.

To hang it, fix a wooden support ledge into a wall stud and rest the mandir on the timber — nails or drywall anchors alone will not hold 8 kg (Compact) or 12.5 kg (Large). A length of wood from any hardware store does the job. Mounting hardware is not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStanding is what we recommend where you have the space. When the mandir sits at the level you sit at, you come to it rather than reaching up to it — you settle on the floor and light the diya at eye level.
