Chopra is usually used during festivals in India.  It contains 2 sections - one to hold chawal (rice grains) and the other to hold roli (also known as kumkum - a red substance used to adorn the forehead).    

Lord Ganesha is highly revered in India. An offering / prayer is made to Him before beginning a new innings at anything – be it a wedding or a new business venture.  Therefore, this Chopra assumes special significance.  The Chopra is in the shape of Lord Ganesha’s trunk.  It is in a bright orange and has immaculate cone work in red colour, which further adds to the brightness of the Chopra.  Besides, it has lovely red stones perched all over the Chopra.  Also, there are 2 white coloured stones, one marking the eye of Lord Ganesha and the other at the tip of the trunk.
