On their journey from being a traditional art business - the best marble murti manufacturers in Jaipur - to now a global success, Chairman and President of Murti Mohalla Community, Jaipur Mr. Satya Narain Pandey says, “It is a miracle for our business and our artisans to conceive such soul-stirring visual representations of gods and goddesses for people across the world while keeping technological aid to the minimum." “We believe in doing our homework. We work on understanding the science and history of every temple in India to get the details right. Deity worshipping is a sacred and an overwhelming act, making our task of coming up with the perfect idol and creating a global niche of our marble art all the more challenging.” Prashant Pandey, Chairman, Pandey Moorti Bhandar adds, "'Idol making' has consistently been a privately-run venture over the years. As craftsmen, we are totally devoted to create beautiful sculptures of gods and goddesses. My grandfather was deeply involved in the making of divine statues, so were my dad and uncle. I have taken it up too. We have been fortunate to be following our passion for the past eight decades and I am proud to say that we continue to strive to create the best marble statues.” You can find out more about Pandey Moorti Bhandar, their work, journey and legacy on their website www.pandeymarblearts.com.
