The common religious decoration in Koli households is the placement of a small image of Lord Ganesha over the main doorway. It is believed that placing Lord Ganesha's presence at the doorway brings harmony and prosperity into the house.
A purna kalasha, a pot filled with mango leaves and coconut, adorns a Koli household. This auspicious symbol serves as a ceremonial offering to the household deity, as well as a decorative motif outside shrines and at the entrances of homes.
