To ensure the lasting beauty and functionality of your 2-inch Small Brass Turtle Vastu Diya, regular care and proper maintenance are key. Brass, while durable, requires attention to maintain its shine and prevent tarnishing.

• Cleaning: Begin by dusting the diya regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent the buildup of dust and grime. For a deeper clean, prepare a solution of mild soap and warm water. Moisten a soft cloth or sponge with this solution and gently wipe the diya, avoiding any moisture entering the wick holder. Brass is prone to tarnishing, so prompt cleaning after each use helps preserve its appearance. After cleaning, thoroughly dry the diya with a soft, dry cloth to prevent water spots and potential tarnishing.

• Polishing: Over time, brass may develop a patina or dullness. To restore its original luster, use a brass polish specifically designed for brass items. Apply a small amount of polish to a soft cloth and rub it gently over the surface in a circular motion. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for best results. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing tools, as they can scratch and damage the brass. Polishing should be done periodically to maintain the diya’s shine and elegance.

• Usage: When using the diya, ensure that it is placed on a stable, heat-resistant surface. Use only high-quality oil or ghee and monitor the diya while it is lit to avoid spills or accidents. Always allow the diya to cool completely before handling or cleaning.

• Storage: When not in use, store the diya in a dry place to prevent tarnishing. Consider covering it with a cloth to protect it from dust. Avoid storing it in humid or damp areas, as moisture can accelerate tarnishing.

By following these care and maintenance guidelines, you can ensure that your Brass Turtle Vastu Diya remains a beautiful and functional piece, enhancing your space with its traditional elegance and positive symbolism.
