Lab-certified, genuine ebony wood.

This is a carved wooden emblem rather than a shankh you blow or pour water from, so keep it dry on the altar and use a metal or natural conch for jal offerings. At 3 inches it sits neatly beside a deity or rests in the palm during prayer; wipe it with a dry cloth only, as water raises the grain on ebony and leaves pale patches behind.
