Why Choose This Wooden Sita Rama Set
•
A Focused Two-Figure Set - Just Rama and Sita, rather than the full four-figure Ram Darbar, for a simpler or smaller golu display.
•
Ready to Display, Already Mounted - Both figures are fixed to their base, so there's no separate stand to source or balance.
•
Hand-Painted Character - Brush-painted detailing means the finish has natural variation rather than a uniform factory look.
•
Works Beyond the Festival - Stands well on a console, shelf or altar corner once Navratri is over.
•
Manageable Size for Gifting or Shipping - Compact enough to pack and send without special handling.
Frequently Asked Questions
•
What does the Wooden Sita Rama set include?
Two figures only, Rama holding a bow and Sita beside him, mounted together on one decorated wooden base.
•
How is this different from Kansa & Clay Heritage Kitchen Sita Rama Set (Ram Darbar)?
That set includes four figures, Rama, Sita, Lakshmana and Hanuman. This one is a compact two-figure Rama-Sita pair, meant for a smaller or more focused golu display.
•
Is this set made using Etikoppaka craft?
Yes. It is made using the Etikoppaka Bommalu technique, a turned-wood lacquer craft from Andhra Pradesh where wood is shaped on a lathe and finished with hand-painted colour.
•
Does the set come fixed to its base, or is it loose?
Both figures are already fixed to the base, so it's ready to place on your golu steps or shelf as soon as it arrives.
•
Is this set safe to keep around young children?
It's best kept as a display piece rather than a plaything, since the painted wooden parts, including the bow, aren't meant for handling by young children.
