7 Inch Brass Bal Krishna Idol in Shell

That big open shell is the first thing everyone notices. It curves up behind little Krishna like a canopy, and a smaller shell forms the seat he sits in.

Now look at his face. This 7 inch brass bal krishna idol in shell shows Krishna as a small child with a wide, happy smile and round cheeks. His hair is tied up in a top knot, and there is a tilak on his forehead.

Below that he wears layers of necklaces, with bands on his arms. He sits with his legs crossed and his hands resting on his lap and knee.

The shell seat stands on a plain round base. Turn it around and the back of the shell shows deep ridges all the way up, with a darker antique tone in the grooves. The piece is cast in brass and then finished by hand with chisel work.

Bal Krishna, also called Bal Gopal, is Lord Krishna as a little child. Families keep a bal krishna idol at home believing he brings joy and keeps the house lively, just like a small child does. Many also search for him as a bal gopal idol. He fits well in a small home temple or on a side table. At about 2.1 kg he is easy to lift and move.

For care, dust the shell lines with a soft dry brush and wipe the face and body with a dry cloth.

Put him where you pass by every day. That smile is hard to walk past without smiling back.

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.

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.
