Brass Laddu Krishna

About the Product

A brass idol of baby Krishna crawling, the classic form used for Janmashtami pooja and home altars.

Brass Laddu Krishna depicts Krishna as a crawling infant, one hand reaching forward, adorned with a crown, beads, and anklets worked into the brass detailing. This particular form of Krishna, often called Laddu Gopal in North India, is one of the most commonly used idols during Janmashtami, since it represents Krishna's childhood rather than his adult or divine forms.
