Temple woodwork, carved by hand.
Ornate temple brackets, pillars, doorways and yali carvings hand-finished by master craftsmen in seasoned teak and rosewood.
From load-bearing temple brackets to decorative yali and gaja-simha carvings, our woodworkers combine CNC roughing with entirely hand-finished detail — then hand-spray a traditional wood-tone finish for a centuries-old look.

Our workflow.
Consultation
We start with a call to understand the deity, figure or model you need, the setting it will live in, and your timeline.
Reference & Brief
Photos, temple agama guidelines, existing artwork or a rough sketch are gathered into a shared brief.
Digital Sculpt & 3D Scan
We build a digital or clay maquette — scanned or sculpted to scale — reviewed with you before any material is cut.
Prototype
A first article is 3D printed, carved or cast for your physical approval before full production begins.
Casting, Carving & Finishing
Approved work moves to bronze casting, wood carving, moulding or large-format printing, then hand-finished.
Gilding, Painting & Delivery
Gold leafing, patina or paint is applied by hand, then the piece is packed and delivered or installed on site.

From the workshop.
FAQ
Yes. Most commissions start from reference photographs, an existing idol, temple drawings, or even a rough sketch — our sculpting team builds the 3D form from there.
