Dear Wasis,

1. In my opinion, I personally find your question `tough' to answer.

2. Usually, taking the lawyer's term: cavet emptor or `let the buyer beware' should be more appropriate ... choice here.

3. There is a further `twist' to this. Nowadays, there are so many commercial items.

Simply go to any `Feng Shui emporium' type of shops on the internet and one can see .. as you mentioned so many `wealth', `protection' or `prosperity' type of figurines. These comes in many forms.

Many of these should be classified as under
" decorative items' as suggested in the attached `caricature'.

4. Traditionally - What constitutes as an altar object?

4.1 In the religious sense, many of these figurines had their eyes painted.

Once these eyes were `painted' by a priest, these are considered altar objects.

4.2 We also find, buddhist stones. Many of these are stones or rocks carved with a religious figurine. And the owners usually encase these objects in beautiful gold casings - after they were blessed by priests in temples.

4.3 Objects or figurines that we ourselves, purchased from a temple and `invite' them to our homes.

4.4 We voluntary and place these objects or figurines on our `altar'.

The above, is a rough view of what objects on an altar is like.

Frankly, other objects are more difficult to classify. And as mentioned above " cavet emptor " prevails.

5. No, the altar should preferably not be placed on the same wall as the toilet. This is considered inauspicious.

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
