How to display it Hang it by a front door or entryway — the traditional placement for welcoming a symbol of protection into a home — or mount it as a focal point on a living room or bedroom wall. A wall anchor or sturdy hook is recommended given its larger size and weight. Care Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth; avoid soaking or scrubbing it with water. Handle carefully when hanging or moving it, and check that the mounting hardware is secure given its larger size, since carved or cast detailing can chip if dropped. Prefer a smaller size?
