Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pooja thali?
The round tray that items are assembled on and carried as one piece. Many have small bowls or divided sections set into them to keep loose contents separate.
What goes on one?
That varies between households and between occasions, which is why trays are sold with different numbers of compartments rather than as a fixed kit. The thali is the tray; what it carries is your own.
Does it come with the small bowls?
Whether the bowls are included or are part of the moulding is on the product listing. It is worth checking, since both arrangements are sold and the photographs do not always make it clear.
What should I check before buying?
The diameter against what you actually use, and the rim. A tray with a flat edge spills when it is carried and one with a raised lip does not, which matters more than it sounds when the tray is moving and has a lamp on it.
What size is it, and what is it made of?
Both are on the product listing, which is where the seller states them and keeps them current. They are not repeated here, because sizes and materials change between batches and a figure written into an article goes stale without anyone noticing.
How is decorative metal looked after?
Dry it after any contact with water and store it dry, because metal left standing wet marks and the mark is harder to shift than the water was to wipe off. Mild soap and a soft cloth is the cautious approach; abrasive pads and strong cleaners take the finish off, and a finish is not something you can put back. Any care instruction the seller provides beats general advice.
What should I watch when there are lit diyas or candles nearby?
Ordinary fire care, which matters more at festival time than at any other point in the year. Keep flames away from fabric, paper, artificial flowers and anything overhanging, keep them out of reach of children and pets, put them on a stable surface where they cannot be knocked, and do not leave anything burning unattended or overnight. Metal and marble both conduct heat, so a holder can get hot. This is general care rather than a safety rating of this product.
Will it look exactly like the photograph?
Close, but pieces like this are finished by hand and vary a little from one to the next in colour, in the depth of the finish and in small dimensions. If an exact shade or an exact size matters -- because it has to sit in a particular spot or match something you already own -- it is worth asking the store before ordering rather than after.
How is it packed for delivery?
Worth unpacking carefully and checking it over on arrival. Anything that has gone wrong in transit is the store's to put right, and the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 applies.
Does this page make any claim about what this will do for me?
No. It describes what the object is and how it is generally used, and points at the product listing for material, size and what is included. Objects of this kind appear in festival and household observance, and describing that use is not the same as promising a result. Nothing here is a statement about prosperity, luck, protection or any other outcome, and nothing is a claim about the material or how long a particular piece will last.
Can I order this with items from other stores?
Yes. DoorToShop lets you build one order across more than one local store, so this can go in the same basket as whatever else you are getting that day.
How much is delivery, and is there a minimum order?
Delivery is calculated at checkout, where the exact amount is confirmed. Free delivery applies above the threshold shown there, in the Auckland region only. There is no minimum order value, and you can combine items from other local stores in the same cart.
