The Kedarnath
Kedarnath is a stone temple in the Himalaya, laid without mortar and open six months of the year. It takes the name for its height and its undomed crown.
Six feet tall with a flat crown and no spire above it.

Your piece is carved for you. That takes about four months.
Pieces leave Ahmedabad by sea on a sailing we book for you. We send photographs at four points: when the order is confirmed, when carving starts, when it is finished, and when it is on the ship.
Eight to ten weeks at the bench.
No dome and no spire, so the carving is all in the body and the columns. The crown is cut flat and sits square on them.
Six feet tall, with nothing above the crown.
The same 122 cm of wall as the Siddhivinayak and 15 cm more height. Nothing rises past the crown, so it suits a room with a beam, a bulkhead or a low shelf where a spire would not go.
A mandir belongs in the north-east corner of the home — the ishan kon. Where that corner is not free, an east or north wall does. You face east to pray, so the murti faces back west.
This is the same for every piece we make, so it is said once here rather than on each one.
