Nari kunjara is the name given to a style wherein the work of art is a composite of the feminine form (‘nari’ is the Sanskrit word for woman). It is traditionally found in sarees and other textiles and has increasingly made an appearance in the visual arts such as painting and sculpture. The composition that you see on this page is of an airavata, the wild Indian elephant. It is a fine example of the beauty of nari kunjara. Almost the entirety of the surface area of its rotund form features miniscule female shapes.


This one-of-a-kind elephant comes in two-bitone and two monotone finishes. Against the base colours of green, gold, and deep earthy brown, the bare torsos of the dhoti-clad women are executed in golden, the natural colour of pure brass. Note their richly embroidered dhotis and the ample shringar that enhances their youthful beauty, with each nari more beauteous than the other. The tusks of the elephant are formed by the curvaceous legs and fair feet of the naris. The figure at the base of the elephant’s trunk bears a striking resemblance to a mermaid.


A fabric of densely embroidered silk graces the back of the elephant, while the nari kunjara graces the posterior of the elephant (here, mostly the upper bodies), all four legs, and the gigantic head together with the mighty trunk. It is a perfectly symmetrical composition around the midline of the elephant’s trunk.

How to keep a Brass statue well-maintained?


Brass statues are known and appreciated for their exquisite beauty and luster. The brilliant bright gold appearance of Brass makes it appropriate for casting aesthetic statues and sculptures. Brass is a metal alloy composed mainly of copper and zinc. This chemical composition makes brass a highly durable and corrosion-resistant material. Due to these properties, Brass statues and sculptures can be kept both indoors as well as outdoors. They also last for many decades without losing all their natural shine.

 

Brass statues can withstand even harsh weather conditions very well due to their corrosion-resistance properties. However, maintaining the luster and natural beauty of brass statues is essential if you want to prolong their life and appearance.

 

  • The best and simplest way to maintain a brass statue is to clean it at least twice a week using a soft cloth or cotton rag. This will prevent dust from accumulating on the surface. Dusting is especially important for outdoor statues since it is prone to dust accumulation much more than indoors.

 

 

  • To give a natural shine and luster to the statue, you may apply coconut or olive oil using cotton on every portion. You can use a toothbrush to get to the small crevices but do not be too harsh. This will make the brass statue appear fresh and new with a polished look.


  • In case you have a colored brass statue, you may apply mustard oil using a soft brush or clean cloth on the brass portion while for the colored portion of the statue, you may use coconut oil with a cotton cloth. 

 

Brass idols of Hindu Gods and Goddesses are especially known for their intricate and detailed work of art. Nepalese sculptures are famous for small brass idols portraying Buddhist deities. These sculptures are beautified with gold gilding and inlay of precious or semi-precious stones. Religious brass statues can be kept at home altars. You can keep a decorative brass statue in your garden or roof to embellish the area and fill it with divinity.
