From ₹453 · 3mm & 5mm acrylic
In many Indian homes the pooja room is a small, well-loved space: a niche in the kitchen passage, a wooden mandir, or a corner of the living room with a shelf. Alongside the deities, families often keep portraits of grandparents and elders who are no longer with them. An acrylic print is a clean way to do this, because it is glossy, easy to dust, and lighter than a framed glass picture. That matters on a small shrine wall, where a heavy frame is awkward to fix and harder to move during Diwali cleaning.
Old photos need some care. A scanned portrait from a faded studio print or a passport-size picture may not have enough detail to be enlarged. Our upload step checks resolution against the size you pick and warns you if it falls short, so you can choose a smaller size rather than get a blurred face. A mobile photograph of an old picture, taken in daylight without flash, often works better than a poor scan.
Placement is practical. Keep the print out of direct reach of the flame, at a height where the family can see it while seated or standing for prayer. Wipe it with a soft damp cloth when soot builds up. For a portrait of a family elder, see our family acrylic frames, or browse housewarming frames if you are setting up a new home.
Choosing and preparing a portrait of an elder or ancestor
Start with the clearest photograph you have, even if it is not the most formal. A face-forward shot with an even light and a plain backdrop prints best. If the original is a physical photo, photograph it flat near a window with no flash and without a shadow of your hand falling across it.
Let the print size follow the photo quality. A good 12 megapixel phone picture will usually carry 12×18 in. A small scan may only suit 8×10 in. If the photo is damaged, ask a studio to restore it first, then upload the cleaned file. The 3D preview shows how it sits before you order.
Keeping acrylic clean near a lamp, diya or incense
Oil lamps and incense leave a thin grey film over time. On acrylic this wipes off with a soft, slightly damp microfibre cloth. Avoid ammonia cleaners, rough tissues and hard rubbing, which can scratch the surface. Dust gently first, then wipe in one direction and dry. Do this after the lamp has cooled, never while the surface is warm.
Give the print some distance from the flame. A hanging height at or above the shelf level, with at least a hand-width of clear space around the diya, keeps heat and soot away, and lets you reach the print for a quick wipe. Do not hang it directly above a burning lamp. In humid monsoon weather, keep the room ventilated so condensation does not settle on the surface. Dry any damp patches promptly with a clean soft cloth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose 3mm or 5mm acrylic?
3mm is lightweight and goes up to 20×30 inches. 5mm has a thicker feel and is the choice for larger displays, up to 48×96 inches.
How long does an acrylic frame take to arrive?
Production is typically 1–3 working days after payment and file check. After dispatch, metro locations usually take 2–5 days and other locations 4–8 days.
What photo resolution do I need?
Higher resolution gives a sharper print, especially at large sizes. The upload step checks your photo and warns you if it is too small for the size you picked.
Does the frame come ready to hang?
Stainless-steel studs are included on eligible sizes from 12×18 inches and above. Smaller sizes suit a shelf or table.
Can I print a deity picture or an ancestor portrait?
Yes. You can upload any photo or image you own the rights to. For old photographs, take a clear picture in daylight without flash, or send a good scan. The upload check warns you if the file is too small for the size, so you can pick a smaller print.
Will soot from a diya or incense stain the acrylic?
A thin film of soot can settle over time, but it wipes off with a soft damp microfibre cloth. Do not use ammonia or rough cloths. Keep the print away from the flame, and clean it every couple of weeks so deposits do not build up.
What size fits a small mandir?
For a wooden mandir or a wall niche, 8×10 in or 12×16 in is usually enough. Measure the free space first and leave a few centimetres around the print. For a dedicated pooja wall, 16×24 in or 20×30 in can work without feeling overwhelming.
My family photo is small and a little blurry. Can it still be used?
It depends on the file. Small old scans often work at 8×10 in but not at larger sizes. Try photographing the original again in good daylight. The quality check will tell you honestly if the size is too ambitious, so you can choose a smaller one.
Is the print heavy to hang or place on a shelf?
3mm acrylic is light and suitable up to 20×30 in, making it easy to fix on a mandir wall. Smaller sizes below 12×18 in sit on a shelf or table, without studs. Use plugs suited to your wall for anything that is wall-hung.
Can I send it as a gift to relatives in another city?
Yes. Orders ship pan-India in 5-layer protective packaging. After production of 1 to 3 working days, metro delivery takes 2 to 5 days and other places 4 to 8 days. Put the recipient address at checkout and add a note if the picture is a surprise.
