Lakshmi Narayan

About

The Lakshmi Narayan range Lakshmi Narayan is Vishnu with Lakshmi as his consort, the divine couple of preservation and prosperity, and the form most kept in Vaishnava households. It is also, in the standing pair, one of the more given wedding gifts we make, for the obvious reason that it depicts a devoted couple. The forms The standing pair , Vishnu and Lakshmi side by side, in brass and in antique finish, from 6 inches to large 12 and 10 inch antique sets.

A wider, lower composition, so measure the full base rather than the height. For Vishnu in his own right, see Lord Vishnu idols ; for Lakshmi alone, Maa Lakshmi idols . Vishnu as Venkateswara is Tirupati Balaji . Which material Brass if the murti will receive abhishek or be handled daily, since it tolerates water, milk, kumkum and turmeric and cleans indefinitely.

Size and placement A pair needs more width than a single figure. Six inches suits most home mandirs; the 10 to 12 inch antique sets are statement pieces needing a dedicated surface. Measure the shared or combined base, and on a standing figure include the crowns. The northeast is the quadrant associated with the household shrine in the vastu tradition, which has a genuine textual lineage. Facing conventions are custom rather than text. As a gift A Lakshmi Narayan pair suits a wedding, an anniversary or a housewarming, carrying both preservation and prosperity. Choose a compact set when you do not know the couple's shelf.
