Where it belongs
Decide the spot before the piece. A shelf, an entrance, a desk and a wall each suit different sizes, and the light a spot gets matters more than most people expect.

Choosing it, and where it belongs
Measure the space, not the piece
Check base width as well as height. A short piece on a broad base takes more shelf than a taller, slimmer one, and photographs flatten scale.
Kept with care
A soft dry cloth is enough. Keep plated, painted and antique finishes away from water and polishing paste, which strip the surface rather than clean it.

✦ Questions, carefully answered
The small things you wondered about
Every product page lists the exact height and base width. Photographs flatten scale, so check both numbers against the space you have. A short piece on a broad base often takes more shelf than a taller slim one.
The material is stated on each product page. Solid brass is heavy and can be cleaned indefinitely. Plated pieces are a real layer of gold or silver over a base and should be kept dry. Marble dust is cast rather than carved. They look similar in a photograph and age very differently.
Solid brass takes a paste of lemon and salt or tamarind, rinsed and then dried completely. Plated, antique and meenakari finishes take a soft dry cloth only, because an acidic paste strips the finish rather than the tarnish.
You have 7 days to return any unused piece, for any reason, and every order is covered by our safe-arrival guarantee. If something reaches you damaged, contact us and we will replace it.
