Radha and Krishna with a Diya at Their Feet
Krishna with his flute, Radha holding a matki, and a pair of peacocks worked into the backdrop behind them. What makes this piece different from an ordinary idol is the diya cast into the front, an actual lamp you can light rather than a decorative shape. During aarti the flame sits below the figures and throws light up across the golden polish.

Where to keep it
Because the diya is meant to be lit, it belongs in the pooja corner or the mandir rather than a closed cabinet. The 18cm size also suits a living room shelf where it works as a showpiece between aartis.
Gifting
Radha Krishna together make this a standard wedding and anniversary gift, and the working diya adds a practical side that a plain idol does not have.
