19.5 Inch Black and Golden Brass Venkateswara Idol for the Pooja Room

A pooja room with light walls is where this 19.5 inch black and golden brass venkateswara idol looks its best, because the dark body stands out at once against the wall and the golden crown catches the lamp.

In the pooja room

Placed on the main shelf, Venkateswara stands tall on an eight sided stepped base with lotus petals, so his face sits above the smaller murtis around him. His face, chest, arms and feet carry a black lacquer coating. The crown, the ornaments, the dhoti and the golden namam on his forehead are left in bright brass.

In the hall mandir

If your mandir is in the living room, he works there too: from across the room you see black for the body and gold for everything he wears. At 6.4 kg he is easy to move when you clean the shelf.

Details on the murti

His upper right hand holds the chakra and the upper left the sankha, both in golden brass. The lower right hand is open towards the devotee and the lower left rests at his waist. The dhoti falls in neat pleats, and a band of jewels runs across the chest.

Saturdays and Vaikuntha Ekadashi

Many families do a small pooja for Venkateswara every Saturday and a bigger one on Vaikuntha Ekadashi. On those days, wipe the black parts with a dry soft cloth only; lemon, tamarind or polish will take the coating off. The golden parts can get a gentle wipe with a slightly damp cloth.

As a black venkateswara idol, or a first venkateswara idol for home, this size suits most home mandirs. Bring him home before Vaikuntha Ekadashi, the day the Vaikuntha door opens in Perumal temples.

What are your murtis made of?

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.

Do you ship outside India?

Yes, we ship internationally. Message us on WhatsApp with your country and the murti you like, and we will share the shipping cost and delivery time.

Can I get a custom murti made?

What if my order arrives damaged?

Please record a video while opening the parcel. If anything is damaged, send us the video and photos on WhatsApp and we will help you with a replacement or return as per our return policy.

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?

You can pay securely online using UPI, debit or credit cards and net banking.
