Avoid using harsh chemical scrubs or liquid abrasive cleaners, which can scratch the polished finish or trap residue around the raised motifs. For a deeper traditional clean, a mild paste of tamarind and salt can be applied carefully, rinsed thoroughly, and dried immediately.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mannar Crafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48464164389021,"sku":"CA-HA-HCT-0012","price":1050.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6637\/0717\/files\/CA-HA-HCT-0012-DSC02543.jpg?v=1781866991","url":"https:\/\/kaarigraha.com\/products\/handcrafted-traditional-brass-para-vessel-ornate-elephant-motif-floating-urli-bowl","provider":"Kaarigraha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
