Hanuman ji is worshipped across India for strength, courage and devotion to Shri Ram. Many devotees offer special seva on Tuesdays and Saturdays and on Hanuman Jayanti. A small, thoughtful shringaar makes his darshan at home feel complete.
The chola
Many temples offer Hanuman ji a chola of sindoor mixed with chameli oil. At home, families often keep this simpler with a red or orange poshak, a tilak of sindoor, and the chola only on special days. Follow your family's tradition and the guidance of your pandit ji.
If you do apply sindoor, put the jewellery on after it has settled, and keep stone-set pieces away from oil.
Jewellery for Hanuman ji
- Mukut: a gold mukut sized to the idol's head.
- Kundal: traditional round kundal from our earrings collection.
- Haar: a gold haar, or a mala of red flowers or tulsi on festival days.
- Tilak: a tilak piece if the idol's forehead allows.
- Gada: Hanuman ji's gada is his symbol. Keep it polished and in place.
Gold and red are the natural colours for Hanuman ji, so our gold polish shringaar pieces are a good starting point.
Ram Darbar homes
If Hanuman ji sits in a Ram Darbar, dress him to match Shri Ram, Sita Maa and Lakshman ji. Our Ram Darbar guide and Ram Darbar shringaar collection will help.
Care tips
- Wipe sindoor and oil off jewellery with a dry cloth right after seva.
- Store pieces separately from oil bottles and sindoor boxes.
