PLPS Art Gallery has been making marble murtis in Jaipur since 1950. The workshop hasn't moved — same lane in Chandpole Bazar, same family, three surviving generations after the founder Shilp Guru Pandit Lallu Prasad Sharma. What's made here goes to temple committees, family puja rooms, resellers across India, and buyers abroad.

Murtis We Carve Most Often

Deity-by-deity — what we're usually asked for

Some deities come up more than others. Here's a quick guide to what buyers most often commission from us — though we carve almost every Hindu, Jain and Buddhist iconography on request.

Radha Krishna

Jugal Jodi, Iskcon style, standing and seated compositions in Makrana or Vietnam white marble.

Ganesh

Seated Ganpati in 1-foot, 2-foot and 3-foot sizes. Vamamukhi and Dakshinamukhi trunk directions as requested.

Hanuman

Standing Hanuman ji for temples, seated for home mandirs, sizes up to life-size.

Durga Maa

Ashtabhuja and Simhavahini forms, traditional iconography for temple installations.

Laxmi & Laxmi Narayan

Individual Laxmi ji, seated Laxmi-Narayan pairs, and Laxmi-Ganesh combinations.

Shiv & Shivling

Shiv Parivar sets, Nataraja, and traditional Shivling in Bhainslana black or Makrana white.

Deities we manufacture murtis for

Every category below is carved on order — in your chosen marble, size and finish.

The Marble We Work With

Any stone you want. These three come up the most.

We manufacture moortis in every major marble variety sourced in India and abroad. If a block exists, our workshop can carve it. The three below are what most buyers ask for first — with a note on where each one fits.

Most Requested

Makrana Marble

Origin
Makrana, Nagaur district, Rajasthan (about 60 km from Jaipur)
Character
Warm off-white, very fine grain, actually hardens over time. It's the same stone the Taj Mahal is built from, and Victoria Memorial. When someone says traditional white marble, this is usually what they mean.
Best for
Traditional temple moortis, heritage restoration, deities you want to pass down.
Modern Pick

Vietnam White Marble

Origin
Yen Bai province in Vietnam, imported in whole blocks
Character
Bright, uniform white with very little veining. Feels more contemporary than Makrana. The big advantage is colour consistency across a block, which matters if you want a matched set that all looks the same.
Best for
Modern interiors, matched sets of household deities, minimalist home altars.
Premium Black

Bhainslana Marble

Origin
Bhainslana quarries, also in Nagaur district, Rajasthan
Character
Deep black. Polishes to a mirror-like finish. Just a heads up: a lot of stone gets sold as "black marble", but Bhainslana is a specific quarry name and the real thing is limited. We source it directly.
Best for
Kali, Shani, Bhairav, black Ganesha, and collectors who know what they're asking for.
Also carved on request:
  • Rajnagar White
  • Ambaji White
  • Pink Marble
  • Green Marble
  • Statuario Italian
  • Katni Marble
  • Onyx
  • Jaisalmer Yellow

PLPS Art Gallery Marble Murti Workshop

Common Questions About Our Marble Murtis

PLPS Art Gallery is among the oldest continuously running marble murti workshops in Jaipur — set up in 1950 by Shilp Guru Pandit Lallu Prasad Sharma. Most manufacturers you'll find on Google opened in the 1980s or later. The workshop is still in the founder's family, now operated by the fourth generation.

For traditional Hindu temple murtis, yes — Makrana marble has been the first choice for centuries. It's the same stone used in the Taj Mahal, ages beautifully, and holds carved detail without chipping. For household deities, some clients prefer Vietnam white for a brighter, more uniform look.

Yes, this is common for us. Send the photograph — even a phone-camera snap will do. We confirm every detail with you — pose, proportions, iconography — and then start carving. You'll get WhatsApp photos at every major stage.

There is no fixed minimum for wholesale marble murti orders. We supply retailers, temple committees and religious trusts on both single-piece and hundred-piece batches, at direct factory rates.

Yes. We regularly ship marble murtis to the US, UK, Canada, Australia, UAE, Singapore and Malaysia — each piece reinforced-crated with insurance and full export paperwork.

Yes, visitors are welcome at our Chandpole Bazar workshop in Jaipur's old city. Please call ahead so a family member of the fourth generation is available to show you pieces in progress. It's a 15-minute drive from Jaipur Junction railway station.

Ready to commission your marble moorti?

Talk directly to the manufacturer. No dealers, no middlemen in between. A quick WhatsApp message or a phone call is usually enough to get started, and someone from the fourth generation of the family will walk you through options, marble types, timelines and shipping.
