Custom Made Murugan (Kartikeya) Statues in Marble Stone

Q: How long does a custom Murugan marble statue take to make?

Typically **8–12 weeks** for a Murugan murti, depending on the stone, size, and detail level. Multi-figure forms like the **Valli-Deivanai** group or the six-faced **Shanmukha** take longer because each face and figure is individually carved. We share progress photos at each milestone so you stay involved throughout.

Q: What size Murugan statue should I choose for my home?

For a **pooja room or shelf**, 14–20 inches works well. For a **living-room mandir**, 24–36 inches gives appropriate weight. For a **temple entrance or grand shrine**, 36–48 inches makes a commanding centrepiece. Share your space photo on WhatsApp and we'll suggest a size that fits your room.

Q: Which stone is best for a Murugan murti?

**White marble** (Makrana, Vietnam, or Sagyin) is the most popular for home shrines and shows the vel and peacock detailing beautifully. **Black granite** and **black marble** are striking for the **Palani Dandayudhapani** and warrior forms, and **pink marble** suits decorative seated pieces. Tell us your preference on WhatsApp before we start so we source it correctly.

Q: Can you make the Valli-Deivanai group or the Shanmukha (six-faced) form?

Yes — we craft **Murugan with Valli and Deivanai** as a devotional family group, and the grand **Shanmukha / Arumugam** form with six faces and twelve arms. Both are complex compositions carved on a shared base. Pricing scales with the number of figures and detail — share your reference on WhatsApp for a quote.

Q: Can I have the peacock with wings spread or a prabhavali arch?

Absolutely. We carve the **peacock vahana (Mayil)** with tail feathers fanned as a natural prabhavali behind Murugan, and can frame the murti within an ornate **prabhavali arch (thoranam)**. Share a reference image and our artisans will adapt the composition to match.
