18 Inch Brass Durga Idol with Arch on Lion

Come close and look at the lion’s face. Round eyes, a wide nose and a mane cut in thick waves, all on a lion that is walking forward with Maa on its back. This 18 inch brass durga idol with arch is full of such small things that you keep finding new ones.

The rest of the murti

Maa sits on her lion with one leg folded and the other hanging down. Behind her rises a big arch, carved in rolling waves and topped with a pointed tip, with a second ring of rays round her crown. Her face is calm, with a soft smile and large earrings. Her many arms hold a gada, a sword, a trishul, a bow and a shankh, and one front hand is raised in blessing. Long necklaces and a carved sari cover her down to the feet. The lion stands on a tall rectangular base with a band of lotus petals all round. Every part is cast in brass and finished by hand with chisel work.

At about 14 kg, lift her from under the base with two hands, or with two people, and set her on a strong chowki or a mandir platform.

Why Maa on her lion

Durga Maa is believed to guard her devotees and win over evil, and the lion, her vahan, stands for courage. Families who want a bigger durga idol for Navratri sthapana often pick this size, because it can be seen from across the room. Many devotees looking for a durga maa brass idol for daily pooja keep her there all year.

Seat her before the first day of Navratri, and let the nine nights begin with Maa looking down at your family.

We offer both brass and stone murtis, handcrafted by skilled artisans. The material, exact size and weight of each murti are listed in the product details on this page.

Will the murti look exactly like the photos?

Every murti is handmade, so small differences are natural. Brass murtis can vary slightly in colour and finish, and stone murtis can show natural veins, shade and texture of the stone. The design and size stay the same as shown.

How do I clean and care for my murti?

Brass: wipe gently with a soft, dry cotton cloth. Avoid water, lemon and chemical polish. Brass slowly develops a warm patina over time; this is natural.

Stone: dust with a soft dry cloth, or a slightly damp cloth if needed, and let it dry fully. Avoid acidic cleaners, soaps and harsh chemicals. Handle with care and place it on a stable, flat surface, as stone can chip if it falls.

Which payment options are available?
