Metal Radha Krishna Idol Sitting Under the Tree

Krishna at the Flute, Radha Beside Him, a Peacock at His Feet

This is a scene rather than a pair of figures. Krishna sits beneath a tree playing the flute, Radha turns towards him, and a peacock has settled near his feet to listen. The tree arches over all three and ties the composition together.

The peacock is the detail worth noticing. It appears in the Vrindavan stories as one of the creatures drawn in by the sound of the flute, and including it turns a static idol into a moment caught mid-music.

The finish

Cast in metal and polished to a golden oxidised tone, where the darker shading sits deep in the folds and the raised surfaces stay bright. It holds this appearance without regular polishing.

Gifting

Radha Krishna together stand for devoted love, which is why this one goes to weddings and anniversaries more than any other idol in the range. It also suits a mandir corner or a living room shelf at home.
