Makhan Krishna — the child form of Lord Krishna caught stealing butter from the pot — is one of the most beloved and widely kept Krishna idols in Indian homes. This 4 x 3 inch idol is finished in a dual tone of gold and silver plating with a matte topcoat. The combination of both metals gives it a richer, more layered quality than single-finish pieces. Compact enough for a home mandir shelf, office desk or gifting. At ₹1,499.

Makhan Krishna depicts Bal Gopal seated with his hand in a butter pot, caught in the act. This form captures the most endearing quality of the young Krishna — his playful, irresistible nature. In devotional tradition, the butter represents divine grace, and Krishna stealing it is a metaphor for the deity reaching into the world and taking devotees into his fold without asking. The idol is seated in a stable, compact pose at 4 x 3 inches and is appropriate for daily home mandir puja, gifting at Janmashtami, housewarming and as a personal altar piece.

This idol uses a gold and silver dual tone finish — both metals are applied creating a two-tone effect across the surface with a matte topcoat. The gold plated antique matte version uses only gold plating with an antique matte treatment. The dual tone has a more modern, layered look. The gold antique matte has a warmer, more traditional feel. Both are 4 x 3 inch at ₹1,499.
Yes. The 4 x 3 inch size is ideal for a home mandir shelf where the idol will be worshipped daily. Offer tulsi leaves in a small bowl in front of the idol. Light a diya and incense nearby. Never pour milk, oil or water directly on the surface — the electroplating is not designed for liquid contact.
Yes. Ships in a protective gift box suitable for direct gifting without rewrapping. A Vastu placement guide is included inside the box.
