About Episode's Silver Sikh Religious Idols Collection

This collection brings together Episode Silver's pieces for Sikh devotion and gifting, led by the Khanda Sahib and joined by Ek Onkar plaques and depictions of the Golden Temple. Each silver khanda is worked in 92.5 sterling silver, with its central double-edged sword flanked by the chakkar and the two kirpans rendered in careful detail. Prices in this collection start around ₹4,800.

What This Collection Includes

The Khanda Sahib is where most people start, offered with a wood base or set on a silver base and priced from ₹4,800 to ₹7,500. Its layered form is worked with real attention to detail: the central double-edged sword sits flanked by the chakkar and the two kirpans, each element given enough depth to read clearly from across a room. A silver ek onkar plaque takes a quieter approach, rendering the symbol in a cleaner, more minimal silhouette suited to a study or an office wall. The silver Golden Temple piece is more pictorial and architectural, a representation of Sri Harmandir Sahib itself rather than only its symbols. Between the three, buyers can choose a sculptural Khanda Sahib, a minimal Ek Onkar plaque, or a pictorial Golden Temple piece depending on where it will sit.

Silver, Finish and Where These Pieces Sit

Every piece in this collection is made in 92.5 sterling silver and finished with a Tarnish Resistant Coat, with both silver plated and sterling silver options available depending on the product. The coat is meant to hold up to regular handling without demanding constant polishing, which matters for pieces that get picked up and touched rather than kept behind glass. Most customers place a Khanda Sahib on a home mandir shelf or a living room wall, while the smaller Ek Onkar plaques tend to suit an office desk or a study shelf just as well. The Golden Temple piece, being larger and more detailed, is usually kept somewhere it can be seen properly, on a console or a dedicated wall niche.

Occasions for a Khanda Sahib or Ek Onkar Gift

A Khanda Sahib or Ek Onkar piece is a common gift for a Sikh wedding, often given as part of the return gifts at an Anand Karaj. Families also choose them for a housewarming, especially when the new home includes a dedicated prayer space. A baptism into the Khalsa is another occasion where a Khanda Sahib is chosen with intent, given what the symbol carries within Sikh practice.

Care and Packaging

A soft cloth wipe after handling keeps a piece looking its best, with occasional silver-safe cleaning when needed. Pieces finished with the Tarnish Resistant Coat ask for less frequent attention, though they still benefit from the same gentle care. Every piece ships in protective packaging built to keep fine detailing intact in transit, from the edges of the Khanda Sahib to the script on an Ek Onkar plaque. This collection sits alongside the broader deity idols collection in Episode Silver's site navigation, though Sikhism itself does not use idol worship, and the pieces here are treated as religious symbols rather than idols in the strict sense.
