Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Aramat Baithak Murti (4 inch) – Multicolour Car Dashboard Idol

Almost every Shivaji Maharaj murti you will find shows the warrior. Sword out, horse running, face set for battle. This one shows the king resting. He is sitting back on the gadi, one knee up, shela loose over the shoulder. Same Maharaj — just not in the middle of a fight. On a dashboard or a mandir shelf it feels different. Calmer. More like he is actually sitting there with you. Look closely and you will see where the price sits: small tulip work across the cream angarkha, three strands of pearls at the throat, the blue kalgi in the jiretop, gold banding on every bolster. Full colour, not single-tone. 4 inches tall on a 4.9 inch base — wide and flat, so it stays steady on a dashboard and still holds its own as a centrepiece on a shelf. Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in a relaxed baithak (aramat) pose on bolster cushions 4 inch height · 4.9 inch width · 4 inch depth Full multicolour with fine detail on the angarkha, pearls, kalgi and bolsters Wide flat base — car dashboard, home mandir, study desk or office Selected from artisan clusters across India A good gift for Shiv Jayanti, a new car, or someone shifting into a new home.
