Ram Darbar Shringaar: Dressing Ram, Sita, Lakshman and Hanuman Ji

A Ram Darbar brings several idols together, so the shringaar needs to feel royal and balanced. Shri Ram is the centre, with Sita Mata, Lakshman ji and Hanuman ji around him. Here is a simple way to plan it.

What each idol usually wears

  • Shri Ram and Lakshman ji – a tall mukut, haar and kamarband. Shri Ram traditionally holds a dhanush (bow).
  • Sita Mata – mukut or chandrika, nath, maang teeka, earrings and bangles.
  • Hanuman ji – a mukut and haar, often in red and gold.

Find pieces in mukut, haar, nath and maang teeka, or browse our Ram Darbar shringaar range.

Keeping the darbar balanced

  1. Give Shri Ram the grandest mukut so the eye goes to the centre.
  2. Use one finish for everyone – all gold polish usually looks most regal.
  3. Repeat one accent colour across all idols, such as red or green.

Sizing a set of idols

Ram Darbar idols in one set are often different heights. Measure each idol's head and neck separately and order sizes for each. Our size chart shows which jewellery size matches each idol height. If you are unsure, WhatsApp a photo of the darbar with a ruler to +91 62677 19149.
