Proper care and maintenance are essential to preserving the elegance and durability of your 12-inch Black Marble Pooja Shivling. Crafted from premium Black Marble, this Shivling requires specific attention to maintain its pristine condition and spiritual significance.

• Regular Cleaning: To keep your Shivling looking its best, clean it regularly using a soft, lint-free cloth. Lightly dampen the cloth with water and gently wipe the surface to remove dust and grime. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the marble’s smooth finish. For deeper cleaning, mix a mild, non-acidic soap with water and use a soft cloth to apply the solution. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and dry the marble completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and streaks.

• Preventing Stains: Black Marble is prone to staining from acidic substances. To avoid stains, keep the Shivling away from acidic materials such as lemon juice, vinegar, and strong cleaning agents. If any liquid spills, promptly clean it with a damp cloth to prevent absorption. Regularly inspect the surface for any signs of stains and address them immediately to maintain its sleek appearance.

• Protecting from Environmental Factors: Exposure to direct sunlight can cause the marble to fade or alter in color over time. To protect your Shivling, place it in an area with indirect light or use a cover if exposed to sunlight. For indoor use, ensure it is not placed near sources of extreme heat or moisture, which could affect its finish.

• Handling with Care: Given its weight and delicate finish, handle the Shivling carefully to avoid damage. Always lift it from the base and avoid any rough handling or dropping. Proper handling ensures the Shivling remains intact and maintains its aesthetic and spiritual value.

• Periodic Inspections: Regularly inspect your Shivling for any signs of wear or damage. If any issues arise, consult a professional marble restoration expert to address them promptly. Timely maintenance helps preserve the Shivling’s beauty and ensures it remains a cherished element of your spiritual practice.

By following these care and maintenance guidelines, you can keep your 12-inch Black Marble Pooja Shivling in excellent condition, ensuring it continues to enhance your worship space with its divine presence and timeless elegance.
