Marble Idols are traditional Hindu deity statues carved from natural marble and used for daily puja, festive decoration, and temple स्थापना (installation). At Murtiya (murtiya.com), our Marble Idols are made by skilled artisans and offered in both natural (unpainted) marble and hand-painted finishes, so you can choose the look that suits your mandir, home shrine, or community temple.
What you get: a curated category of handcrafted marble statues of popular deities including Krishna, Shiva, Durga, Saraswati, Ganesha, Ramdarbar, and Hanuman. This selection is designed for devotees who want a clean, durable, easy-to-wipe surface and a timeless stone aesthetic that fits traditional and modern interiors.
Marble has been used in Indian sacred art for centuries because it holds fine carving details and stays cool and bright in a puja space. Compared with resin or plaster idols, marble is generally more durable, less prone to warping, and better for long-term placement in a mandir environment. Painted marble adds visual richness for festivals, while natural marble emphasizes a classic, minimal look.
Murtiya offers multiple sizes (small for shelves to larger temple placements), secure shipping for safer delivery, and custom-made idols to your exact specifications for special requirements. For temple committees and bulk needs, you can contact Murtiya for coordinated temple orders and bespoke designs.
Placement: Set the idol on a stable, level chowki/altar away from edges; ensure adequate space for diya and incense.
Daily care: Dust with a soft dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
Avoid: Harsh acids, abrasive scrubbers, or strong chemicals that can dull painted work or the marble surface.
