About

Ibhanan Namah — Eco-Friendly Ganesh Idols Online in India Ibhanan Namah makes Ganapati murtis in the traditional Maharashtrian forms — Dagaduseth, Peshwai, Chaurang, Dhumravarna, Kamal, Paan and Nakshi Ganesh — in 8 and 9 inch heights, sized for home Ganeshotsav rather than public mandals. What to check when buying an idol for visarjan Material. Natural shadu or river clay dissolves in water within hours. Plaster of Paris does not — it can take months and leaves residue in lakes and tanks. Several Indian states restrict PoP idols for immersion, so check the listed material before you buy. Colours. Water-based and mineral pigments break down safely. Enamel and metallic paints often carry heavy metals. Unpainted or lightly tinted clay is the safest option for home immersion. Height and weight. An 8 or 9 inch murti fits a standard home mandir shelf and can be carried and immersed in a bucket or drum at home. Measure your platform before ordering. Home visarjan. A clay idol will dissolve in a large bucket of water over a few hours. The remaining slurry can be poured into a garden bed or a potted plant. Handling. Unfired clay is fragile at the trunk and fingers. Unpack over a soft surface and lift from the base, never the trunk. Related: Eco-Friendly Ganesh Idols , Pooja Essentials and Home Decor .
