Having been lovers since time immemorial, Radha and Krishna have come to resemble each other. The selfsame composure of countenance, handsome features that are barely distinguished from each other. A congruent stance of the fine figures.

The much-worshipped amorous couple of Vrindavan were actually Vishnu-Lakshmi reincarnated in Dvaparayuga. They were inseparable then as they are now, immortalised in this contemporary-style, pure marble set of twin murtis, the pristine colour of which is complemented by the soft pastel tints of their clothing and jewellery. Both colour and silhouette convey a sense of the floating and fluidity.

The prevalence of the peacock, symbolic of romance. Two at the feet of Krishna, one at Radha’s. A brilliant bit of their plumage wedged into the crown on each deity’s head.

A Divine Union of Love and Melody

Immerse yourself in the eternal dance of divine love with this exquisite Radha Krishna statue, meticulously crafted from pristine white marble. This captivating piece embodies the celestial romance that has inspired countless devotionals and artistic expressions throughout history. The smooth, cool surface of the marble serves as a perfect canvas, bringing to life the vibrant hues that adorn the divine figures. Krishna, the charming flautist, is depicted with his characteristic gentle smile, his fingers poised to create melodies that enchanted the Gopis and the entire universe. His attire, painted in soft yellows and vibrant greens, is accented with delicate gold detailing, evoking the opulence of the divine realm. A majestic peacock feather crowns his head, a symbol of his divine beauty and a testament to his connection with nature, as seen in tales where he danced with peacocks in the forests of Vrindavan.

Radha's Grace and Devotion

Beside Krishna stands Radha, his beloved, her form radiating grace and unwavering devotion. Her posture, with one hand raised in a blessing or a gesture of welcoming, conveys her deep spiritual connection and loving surrender. Adorned in a flowing white sari with splashes of subtle yellow and intricate gold patterns, she mirrors Krishna's divine splendor. The vibrant green drapery that cascades around her adds a touch of earthly beauty to her celestial presence. The detailed ornamentation, from the delicate necklaces to the bangles, speaks of the richness of their divine love, a love that transcends earthly boundaries and is celebrated as the epitome of spiritual union. Each figure is further enhanced by a beautifully rendered peacock at their feet, another iconic symbol associated with Krishna, representing immortality, renewal, and beauty.

A Timeless Symbol of Bliss

This statue is more than just a decorative piece; it is a conduit to the spiritual heart of India's rich cultural heritage. The stories of Radha and Krishna are central to the Bhakti movement, a path of devotion characterized by intense love and personal relationship with the divine. Their eternal liaison in the sylvan groves of Vrindavan, filled with playful dalliances, soulful songs, and profound spiritual communion, has been immortalized in scriptures like the Bhagavata Purana and the Gita Govinda. Owning this statue is like inviting that divine energy into your space, a constant reminder of the power of pure love, devotion, and the blissful union of the soul with the divine. It is an ideal centerpiece for any altar, meditation space, or living area, radiating peace, harmony, and divine blessings.

How to clean and maintain marble statues?

Marble has been a preferred material for sculptors and artists for more than a thousand years. It is a rock that undergoes metamorphism which causes recrystallization of the original carbonate mineral grains. Marble comes in various colors, designs, and dimensions. Pure white marble is the most preferred type of marble for making sculptures and statues since time immemorial. White marble is especially used for sculpting stone monumental sculptures since ancient times. The natural shine and luster of the carbonate crystals of white marble give a lavish and beautiful appearance to the statue.

Marble stone statues are highly durable and can even withstand harsh weather conditions without getting corroded, therefore, they can be kept indoors or outdoors without getting damaged or weathered. Although these statues can last for many decades, their regular care and cleaning are essential to increase their longevity and beautiful appearance.

The simplest and basic way of cleaning a marble stone statue is to clear away dirt accumulated on the surface. Outdoor statues are especially prone to biological growth and dirt build-up that may take away their natural beauty. You may rinse the statue with warm water and mild soap to clean the dirt as much as possible. You can use a sponge or cotton cloth to scrape off dirt accumulated in crevices and cracks.

You must never allow water to stand on the surface of the statue for a long time. Standing water gets absorbed by the marble’s porous surface which results in its discoloration. Therefore, it is always recommended to dry-clean the statue with a towel or damp cloth.

Applying beeswax, a non-toxic product, on the surface of the marble statue offers protection against staining, dirt, and pollutants. It also polishes the surface and gives a natural shine to the statue.

Marble statues need periodical cleaning to maintain their flawless look. However, harsh and deep cleaning can result in making the statue look dull. If your marble statue is withering away, it is recommended to take the help of a professional cleaner. Marble is a delicate material and therefore needs proper care.

Marble Mastery Unveiled: The Artisan's Symphony in Sculpting Timeless Beauty

Marble is a soft and delicate metamorphic rock derived from limestone. It is composed mainly of recrystallized carbonate minerals. The appealing appearance of marble gives rise to the making of beautiful sculptures and statues. Jaipur city of Rajasthan, India, is considered the capital of marble carving where various marble idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are made. These magnificent statues are carved by skilled sculptors out of the purest white marble. The slight softness of white marble makes it easier to be carved and chiseled into any desirable form or shape. Another impressive feature of marble is that the calcite has a low refractive index that allows light to penetrate the stone before getting scattered out. This results in bringing a translucent appearance and luster to the marble sculpture. This is the reason why most sculptors prefer to work with marble for sculpting life-size statues that require intricate details, evoking a certain realism to the work.

There is a detailed or step-by-step process of developing the desired structure of a sculpture from marble stone. These steps are:

1. Clay mould

Most sculptors prefer to sculpt a preliminary model out of clay or wax to translate its complex and intricate details into the final stone sculpture with the use of calipers or a pointing machine. The plasticity of the clay mould helps sculptors capture the success of the final sculpture before carving the stone. The clay is moulded into the desired shape or form and this acts as a rough

2. Roughing out

The second step of carving or sculpting is to remove large portions of unwanted marble stone. This task is done by using a special tool known as a point chisel. The pointed end of this tool is useful for splitting the large stone and removing big chunks that are not wanted. Usually, a mallet (a tool similar to a hammer) is used to transfer energy through the chisel to shatter the stone evenly and accurately.

3. Refining the figure

Once the sculptors have determined the general shape of the sculpture, a toothed chisel or claw chisel is used to refine the stone. These tools create parallel lines in the stone to add texture to the figure. During this stage, the rough block of stone has now changed into the general shape of the sculpture.

4. Adding the details

The sculptor is now ready to carry out detailed work to develop a more refined form of the sculpture. Tools such as rasps and rifflers are then used to enhance the shape into its final form. These tools finely create details such as frills or folds of clothing or locks of hair.

5. Polishing

This is the last step in marble sculpting in which the sculptor uses materials such as sandpaper to bring out a natural sheen to the sculpture. The sandpaper is rubbed against the surface to make it smoother and flawless. Sometimes, tin oxide is also used to make the sculpture appear glossy and more translucent.

Marble sculptures are highly durable and can last for many decades if maintained and taken care of properly. They are also extremely weather-resistant and therefore, can be kept outdoors or indoors. The exquisite beauty of marble statues elevates the aura of the space and emanates positivity all around.
