Here's an Kolkata idol maker who has a website:

This isn't an endorsement of the idol maker (of course);

I just enjoyed looking at the images and thought others might enjoy

them too.

Thanks to Ms Bauju for sending these beautiful images.

 

I'm wondering if the DEB studios could produce a small (under 12 inches high) image of a rare Buddhist icon, that of Red Saraswati. And I wonder if I could afford it, if it could be made!

 

Most of these murthies are designed for display on pandals on the street during Durga Puja, and then submerged in the nearest river at Dusshera (10th night after the New Moon).
