Description
At the Thirunageswaram temple near Kumbakonam, Vishnu is worshipped as Oppiliappan — a name local tradition ties to a legend of the deity declining salt in his offerings, setting this form apart from Vishnu's more widely known avatars. EthniiChic's Uppiliappan Vishnu Name Board brings this lesser-seen but deeply revered South Indian form to a door sign, set against a rich blue background.
Our artists hand-paint Uppiliappan standing within a gold temple arch, with two devotees kneeling in reverence on either side, finished with brass bells hanging from rings along the bottom edge. Your household name is added beside the figure in gold-tone lettering, based on the exact wording you share with us at the time of ordering.
Its niche, regionally specific subject makes it a considered gift for Tamil Vaishnavite households or anyone with a particular connection to the Thirunageswaram temple tradition.
Material: Wood, brass bells
Dimensions: 25 cm x 20 cm
