FREE Delivery

Stately neck and shoulders balanced on a super-straight spine. The regal bearing of the erstwhile Shakyamuni is captured with a great deal of skill in this seated Buddha composition.


The long, gracefully sculpted fingers of the right hand gathered in the dharmachakra mudra. A superbly engraved robe draped over a single shoulder.


The undulations of the left hand on the lap, which cradles the little almsbowl, a mere remnant of His days of mendicancy. Ornate kundalas (danglers) in the lengthened ears graze His gently motioning clavicles.

The most striking aspects of this murti are, first, the robe of the Buddha and, second, the Bodhi tree that forms an aureole at the back. Richly engraved silk clothes the contemplative figure - from the sheer attention to detail with which the engravings have been executed, to the fall of the fabric at the wrists and ankles and down the torso.


A curvaceous vine motif with a densely petalled flower recurs throughout the robe. Its hems are spread on the surface of the throne; layered lotus petals carved around the circular edge, an integral element of traditional Buddhist iconography.


A fig tree with a teeming canopy rises behind the figure of the monk. A narrow shoot branches out into a dense network of leaf and vein and petal, each aspect of which has been executed with untiring precision and skill. A perfectly round silhouette, akin to an organic halo. Birds perched therein, their little bodies turned towards the Buddha as if in devotion.


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.
