• Across India, there is widespread reverence for the complete crown or the divine crown. In Tamil Nadu, it is referred to as kiridam and is a crucial component of temple Alankaram (decoration). The mukut serves as the focal point of idol decorations in Northern India during festivals such as Janmashtami and Navaratri. Regional variations in crowns, ranging from Rajasthani silverwork to Kumbakonam gold-plate artwork, emphasize the distinct artistry of each spiritual area.
• Usage:

It embodies the divine might of the deity being worshiped and fosters spiritual presence. Ideal for deities such as Murugan, Krishna, Vishnu, Durga, and Lakshmi.
• Preservation:
After use, keep your kiridam or mukut in a dry cloth-wrapped box to preserve its beauty and heavenly energy. Stay away from chemical-based cleansers, perfumes, and water. Use cotton or a soft towel to clean it once in a while. This aids in maintaining its luster, intricate details, and sacredness.
