Brass Swastik Box for Kumkum/Pooja/Chandan/ Turmeric | Brass Kumkum Box

Brass Swastik Box with Screw Cap

You know what I love about these traditional kumkum boxes? They’re so thoughtfully designed – small enough to tuck away neatly, but solid and well-made in a way that modern plastic containers just aren’t.

This brass kumkum box features a beautiful swastik symbol embossed right on the screw cap. The swastik, as you probably know, is one of the most auspicious symbols in Hindu tradition, representing good fortune, prosperity, and positive energy. Having it on your kumkum container adds an extra layer of blessing to your daily puja routine.

What makes this piece special is the lovely ridged detailing around the rim – those traditional grooves that catch the light beautifully and give the box real character. The screw cap design is practical too – it keeps your kumkum fresh and prevents any spills, unlike those loose-lid containers where the kumkum can sometimes cake up or dry out.

The brass has that warm, golden tone that just feels right for pooja items. It’s compact – about the size that fits comfortably in your palm – so it doesn’t take up much space on your puja shelf or in your bag if you need to carry kumkum with you. I’ve found these small brass boxes work wonderfully not just for kumkum, but also for storing vibhuti, chandanam, or even small amounts of turmeric for daily use.

In traditional Tamil homes, having separate containers for different puja items was always important – it showed respect for the sacred materials and kept everything organized. This kumkum box carries on that tradition beautifully. The solid brass construction means it will last for years, and you can polish it whenever you like to keep that bright golden shine, or let it develop a gentle patina naturally over time.

Whether you’re setting up a new prayer corner or replacing a worn container with something more traditional and beautiful, this brass swastik kumkum box is a lovely choice. And of course, bringing this piece home means supporting a child’s heart surgery through our Little Moppet Heart Foundation.
