Deep, earthy green sets the Vanamali Mandir apart from the ivory and white pieces in the collection — a grounding, forest-toned stone that gives the whole structure a sense of weight and permanence. A scalloped arch, carved in fine detail, frames a cream stone deity idol standing on a raised pedestal, the pale figure catching the eye instantly against the darker stone. Floral-carved panels run along the base, and a short run of entrance steps completes the courtyard-temple feel — a piece that feels less placed in a room than grown into it.
