Are SAMA Homes deity idols, Buddha statues, and Urli bowls crafted from solid brass?

Yes. Our collection of over 5,000 sacred Hindu, Buddhist, and Vastu sculptures is handcrafted in India from heavy-gauge, solid non-magnetic brass (and select bronze/copper alloys) using traditional lost-wax (Madhuchista Vidhana) and sand-casting techniques.

How do I clean a Bright Golden Brass Statue vs. an Antique or Stone-Inlaid Patina Statue?

For bright polished golden brass idols and Urli bowls, polish occasionally with lemon juice and salt or Pitambari powder, rinse with warm water, and buff dry immediately. For antique, oxidized, stone-inlaid, or hand-painted patina statues, NEVER use lemon juice, salt, or acidic polish (which strips the intentional antique shading)—simply dust with a soft dry brush or microfiber cloth.

How are brass statues packed and shipped internationally from Canada?

Every statue is inspected and double-packed at our facility in Chestermere, Alberta, Canada. Orders over $75 CAD (or local currency equivalent) qualify for Free Standard Global Shipping Worldwide (DDU outside Canada; tracked wherever available and via Air Mail where tracked service is unavailable), with Paid Express Courier upgrades available at checkout.
