Marble Selection: The process begins by choosing high-quality marble known for its purity, durability, and fine texture. Stones like Makrana, Vietnam, or Ambaji marble are handpicked to ensure a flawless base for carving divine idols.
Artisan Carving: In this step, expert craftsmen meticulously shape the raw marble, bringing out intricate details of the idol by hand. Each curve and feature is carefully carved to reflect divine expressions and traditional aesthetics.
Fine Detailing: In this step, artisans refine the idol’s features with precision tools—enhancing facial expressions, ornaments, and textures. This intricate work brings out the lifelike beauty and spiritual essence of the deity.
Painting: The idol is hand-painted using natural or oil-based colors to highlight divine features, attire, and expressions. This step adds vibrancy and depth, enhancing the spiritual presence and visual appeal of the murti.
Final Blessing: Before the idol is delivered, it undergoes a sacred ritual or prayer, invoking divine energy. This spiritual consecration ensures the murti is not just art, but a blessed presence ready for worship.
