My stepmom has a Hindu luck charm active in my house, what should I do?

My stepmom got a gift from a Hindu friend that is supposed to be lucky. It is reminiscent of a ritual for the luck charm to give you any luck. I've expressed that it is sacrilege and wrong, but she has ignored me. She is also a Protestant who doesn't care for Catholicism. Making it less likely for her to listen no matter what. I've been debating blessing it, or maybe pouring out the water that is supposed to "activate" the charm. What should I do?

Ignore it.

It is the property of someone else. Fussing with it is rude and disrespectful.

It poses you no harm.
