Sheesham (Indian rosewood); 14 kg, size declared below
Performed by a named partner; Shiwalay holds the guarantee

From the Shiwalay desk
Sheesham darkens with age and takes carving well. The jali is cut by hand, so expect small differences from one door to the other.

About this piece

Why it's traditionally used

The mandir is the home of your family's deities, and tradition places it on the east or north-east wall so you face east while you pray. A wall mandir brings that altar into a home without floor space, with the samagri kept in the drawer below. Families often set one up at griha pravesh or after a wedding, when a new home starts its first altar.
