Proper care and maintenance are essential to preserving the beauty and longevity of your 53" Mari-Amma Wooden Durga Idol. Handcrafted with intricate details from high-quality teak wood, this Wooden Durga Murti for Mandir is a timeless piece that requires some attention to keep it looking beautiful and protected for years. Here are some care guidelines to ensure your idol stays in pristine condition:

• Protect from Moisture and Humidity: Teak wood, while durable, should be kept in a dry environment. Excessive moisture or humidity can cause the wood to warp or develop mold. Avoid placing the Wooden Durga Idol for Pooja Room near sources of moisture, such as windows with direct sunlight, bathrooms, or damp areas. Keep it in a room with a stable temperature and humidity level.

• Regular Dusting: Dust regularly using a soft microfiber cloth or a feather duster. For detailed areas such as the goddess’s crown or intricate jewelry, use a soft brush (such as a small paintbrush) to gently remove dust without damaging the carvings. Regular dusting will help maintain the idol’s clarity and brightness.

• Avoid Direct Sunlight: While teak wood is durable, long exposure to direct sunlight can cause the wax brown finish to fade over time. To preserve the vibrant color and intricate details, place the Goddess Durga Wooden Sculpture away from direct sunlight. This will help protect the wood's finish and ensure the statue retains its elegance.

• Polishing and Waxing: Occasionally, apply a teak wood polish or furniture wax to maintain the natural luster of the wood. Use a small amount and gently rub it onto the surface using a soft cloth. This will help enhance the natural grain of the wood, giving it a rich, polished appearance. Avoid over-polishing, as this can make the surface sticky or attract dust.

• Handle with Care: Due to its size and weight (38.24 kg), it’s important to handle the Wooden Durga Murti with care. When moving or adjusting the idol, lift it by the base or use proper lifting techniques. Avoid touching delicate features like the goddess's jewelry or facial details to prevent accidental damage.

• Placement Considerations: Ensure the statue is placed on a stable, secure surface in your pooja room or mandir. Avoid placing the idol in areas where it could be easily knocked over or bumped. Additionally, placing the statue on a pedestal or altar enhances its divine presence and minimizes the risk of accidental damage.

By following these simple care guidelines, your 53" Wooden Durga Idol at Harishyam Arts will remain a cherished and vibrant symbol of divine grace and protection for many years, enriching your spiritual practices and home décor.
