Glass Turtle & Plate Set for Vastu – Ribbed Sunburst Dish, 10 cm

A glass turtle and plate set — the tortoise (kachua) resting on its own dish, as placed in Vastu Shastra and Feng Shui for longevity, stability and steady good fortune.

The tortoise is traditionally set on the plate with a little water, and positioned facing into the home — most often in the north or north-east, on a hallway console, a shelf near the entrance, or on the mandir alongside the deities. It is a common housewarming, Diwali and Griha Pravesh gift for exactly that reason.

This set pairs a ribbed sunburst dish — rays radiating from a smooth centre out to a scalloped rim — with a plain clear turtle. The simplest of the four sets and the easiest to place, at the price that makes it an obvious first Vastu piece or a small gift.
