Keepsakes for home worship, not immersion idols

The wood and decorative idols in this edit are keepsakes for home worship. They are not immersion idols, so do not plan to immerse them in water. Many families keep a Ganesha idol in the puja room or on a shelf through the year.

If your family follows immersion, choose an idol made for that purpose and follow your local guidance. Jewellery and lasting display pieces should not be assumed suitable for immersion either.

How to compare idols, thali and diya

1. Compare each piece by its material, dimensions and care.
2. For the thali, read exactly which pieces the set of 6 includes.
3. For the diya, check the fuel needs and what is included with it.
4. For incense, note the pack of 30 and check the other details.

The Ganesh Chaturthi puja items you need depend on your household. Build around the articles you already use.

Ganesh Chaturthi in Hindu tradition

Ganesh Chaturthi celebrates the birth of Lord Ganesha. Families bring home an idol, light a diya, burn incense and pray. In many places the festival ends with immersion. Customs vary by region and family.

Ganpati puja at home varies by household. Some families keep it simple, with a diya, incense and prayers. Follow your family tradition or your priest's guidance.

Care and more Ganesh collections

Wipe wood and brass items with a soft dry cloth. Keep gold-plated and silver-plated pieces away from water and perfume. Let a lamp cool before you clean it.
