# Handcrafted Black Granite Radha Krishna under Kadamba Tree with Vrindavan Arch, 3ft > A 3ft jugal jodi in jet-black granite, standing beneath a carved kadamba tree whose branches close into a Vrindavan arch overhead. **Source:** https://www.tilakmandirwala.com/products/black-granite-radha-krishna-kadamba-tree-vrindavan-arch-3ft **Business:** Tilak Mandirwala — made-to-order marble temples (mandirs), statues and decorative handicrafts. Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. Founded 2006. **How it works:** Each piece is carved to order by the independent master sculptors TMW works with in Jaipur's Khajane Walon Ka Rasta sculptors' market. TMW designs the piece with the customer, briefs the sculptor, and follows it through to delivery and installation. **Pricing:** request-for-quote — pieces are custom, so the site carries no list prices. **Ships:** across India; export enquiries welcome. **About the image:** a design visualisation, not a photograph of stock on hand. The piece is carved to order after the design is agreed. **Availability:** made to order. ## The kadamba arch, and why it is granite Radha and Krishna stand together as the jugal jodi, Krishna's weight shifted into tribhanga with the flute raised to his lips, Radha at his left hand with a lotus. Behind them the kadamba tree rises and closes overhead into a prabhavali arch. It is the same tree Braj devotees picture Krishna beneath, here worked as a canopy of open leafwork with small birds perched in the branches. Both figures share one lotus base, so the composition reads as a single piece of stone rather than a pair set side by side. Jet-black granite is the reason the arch holds together. It is dense and non-porous enough to carry undercut foliage this fine without chipping, and it takes a true mirror polish, which very few natural stones will. Under a single warm light the polished planes of the drapery and the figures pick up long gradient highlights while the recessed leafwork stays matte-dark, and that contrast is what gives the piece its depth from across a room. ## How the arch is carved to order Every arch piece is carved to order by the master sculptors we work with in Jaipur, from a drawing agreed with you first. Because the tree, the birds and the halo are all worked in relief from the same block, the layout has to be settled at the design stage: how open the leafwork should be, how far the arch stands proud of the figures, whether Radha's veil falls in front of or behind the foliage. We design it with you, brief the sculptor, review the block as the carving comes up, and follow it through to your door. ## Where a 36-inch piece sits best At 36 inches the piece sits comfortably as a living-room centrepiece on a low plinth or console, where the arch reads at eye level. In a temple installation it works as the principal murti of a Radha-Krishna shrine, since the integral arch removes the need for a separate prabhavali frame. Height, base profile and the depth of the relief can all be adjusted, with a shallower arch for a wall-adjacent niche or a deeper one for a free-standing installation. ## Why the kadamba tree belongs to Krishna Kadamba is Krishna's tree in the Braj tradition, the shade he plays his flute under in the Vrindavan lila, and a jugal jodi framed by it carries that setting into the room rather than only depicting the two figures. Tell us the space it is going into and we will quote the size, the base and the polish that suit it. ## Specifications - **Material:** Black Granite - **Finish:** Mirror polish - **Colour:** Black - **Height:** 36 inches - **Width:** 25 inches - **Depth:** 14 inches - **Weight:** 43 kg - **Ideal for:** living room centrepiece, temple installation Stone, size and finish are all changeable — these are the specifications of the piece as shown. ## Media ### Images (1) - https://vptrobfqdvauunfvodxw.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/tmw-media-assets/Statue%20product%20images/black-granite-radha-krishna-kadamba-tree-vrindavan-arch-3ft.webp (primary, concept render) All media is public and CORS-open — fetch directly, no signing or proxy needed. ## Part of - [Statues](https://www.tilakmandirwala.com/collections/custom-marble-statues) ## Related pieces - [Handcrafted Black Granite Radha Krishna Jugal Jodi Standing Pair, 30-inch](https://www.tilakmandirwala.com/products/black-granite-radha-krishna-jugal-jodi-standing-pair-30in) - [Handcrafted Black Granite Radha Krishna Seated Pair on Carved Chowki, 21-inch](https://www.tilakmandirwala.com/products/black-granite-radha-krishna-seated-pair-carved-chowki-21in) - [Handcrafted Dholpur Pink Sandstone Radha Krishna Courtyard Pair, 4ft](https://www.tilakmandirwala.com/products/dholpur-pink-sandstone-radha-krishna-courtyard-pair-4ft) ## Enquire about this piece - WhatsApp, message pre-written: https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=919766532408&text=Hi!%20I'd%20like%20a%20quote%20to%20have%20this%20design%20made%3A%20Handcrafted%20Black%20Granite%20Radha%20Krishna%20under%20Kadamba%20Tree%20with%20Vrindavan%20Arch%2C%203ft.%20Product%20link%3A%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tilakmandirwala.com%2Fproducts%2Fblack-granite-radha-krishna-kadamba-tree-vrindavan-arch-3ft - Tell us the size, the stone and where it is going.
