Griha Pravesh Housewarming Hamper - Brass Kalpvriksh Gift Set

The gift for someone moving into a new home - and the one that isn't another candle. Griha Pravesh and Diwali fall together for many families, and this hamper suits both: substantial enough to be a proper housewarming present, festive enough to be used the week it arrives.

What's in the hamper

• 1 x Brass Kalpvriksh With Birds - the Kalpvriksh is the wish-fulfilling tree of Hindu tradition, here cast in brass with birds settled among the branches. A sculptural piece for a console or shelf.
• 1 x Gold Leaf Shaped Platter (Large) - useful from day one for keys and post by the door, or for sweets when guests arrive.
• 2 x Brass Lotus Diya - lit at the threshold on the first evening in a new home, as tradition has it.

Why this set works as a gift

A good housewarming gift has to survive not knowing the recipient's taste. These three pieces are warm-toned metal with no competing colour, they suit a modern apartment as readily as a family home, and the Kalpvriksh carries a meaning worth explaining in the card - a tree that grants what is asked of it is a generous thing to wish on someone's new house.

The tradition

At Griha Pravesh the family traditionally enters the new home with the right foot first, lights lamps at the entrance, and boils milk until it overflows as a sign of abundance. The two diyas in this set are intended for that first lighting.

Care

Dust the Kalpvriksh with a dry soft brush, reaching between the branches. Polish the brass with lemon and salt or a brass polish when it dulls, and dry fully. Wipe the platter with a damp cloth; not dishwasher safe.
