Rakhi Gifts at Dev Aastha — Silver-Plated Idols for Raksha Bandhan

This collection brings together the silver-plated idols, deity sets and décor pieces from our catalogue that work best as Raksha Bandhan gifts. Prices run from ₹1,149 to ₹10,999, with most pieces falling between ₹1,149 and ₹2,999. These are gifts to give alongside the rakhi — murtis and home décor, not the rakhi thread itself — and every piece arrives in premium gift-ready packaging with free shipping across India.

Rakhi Gifts for Your Brother

A brother's own home is the easiest place to start. The silver-plated elephant pair is the piece most often bought for an entrance — the vastu placement associated with protection and prosperity — while the Hanuman idol is the usual choice for a car dashboard or a work desk. The meditating Buddha suits a brother who works from home or keeps a quiet corner of his own. If he has recently moved into a place of his own, the Kamdhenu cow with calf and the Ganesha idols here double as a housewarming gift that stays on display long after the festival.

Rakhi Return Gifts for Sister and Bhabhi

The return gift is where most brothers get stuck. The Lakshmi–Ganesh silver-plated idol set at ₹2,499 is the most gifted pair we carry and reads as a proper occasion gift rather than an afterthought. The peacock tealight candle holder pair at ₹3,449 is the pick for a sister who likes to keep a table set, and the Ashta Lakshmi tortoise and Lakshmi Charan pieces suit a sister setting up her own mandir. For bhaiya and bhabhi together, the Shubh Labh door décor works as a single gift for the household.

Rakhi Gifts by Budget

Under ₹1,500 you have the Hanuman idol from ₹1,149, the Ganesha idol and the Venkateswara Balaji idol at ₹1,199, and the Kamdhenu cow with calf from ₹1,299 — smaller pieces, full silver-plated finish, gift box included. Between ₹1,500 and ₹2,999 sit the dual-tone Kamdhenu cow and the Ashta Lakshmi tortoise from ₹1,499, the throne and trishul Ganesha idols at ₹1,499, the Lakshmi–Ganesh set at ₹2,499, the meditating Buddha at ₹2,999, and the six-inch Shri Ram, Shrinath Ji and Shringar Krishna face idols on wooden bases at ₹2,999. Above ₹3,000 sit the peacock tealight candle holder pair at ₹3,449, while larger sizes of the Kamdhenu cow, the elephant pair and the Hanuman idol run up to ₹10,999.

Why a Silver-Plated Idol Works as a Rakhi Gift

Raksha Bandhan gifts are kept, not consumed — which is why sweets and cash are forgotten by September while a murti stays on the shelf. Silver carries a long-standing association with auspicious gifting in Indian households, and silver plating gives you that association at a price that suits a sibling gift rather than a wedding gift. The finish holds its shine with minimal upkeep, the iconography follows traditional proportion, posture and expression rather than an approximation of it, and the packaging is finished enough that nothing needs re-wrapping before it is handed over.

Ordering in Time for Raksha Bandhan 2026

Raksha Bandhan 2026 falls on Friday, 28 August. If the gift has to reach another city, order at least a week ahead — the week before the festival is one of the busiest stretches of the year for couriers across India. Shipping is free on everything in this collection and orders go out gift-ready, so the piece can be handed over exactly as it arrives.
