A simple, seated Buddha statue. The left hand is in the contemplative stance, while the right is in the bhumisparsha mudra. The limbs are gathered in the perfect padmasana, while the spinal column - back and shoulders and neck - is regally erect. The two most striking aspects of this sculpture is the handsome face of the Buddha and the gorgeous robe in which He is clad.
The face is small and characterised by distinctive features. Framed by earlobes lengthened with age and wisdom, the brow spreads across like the wings of an albatross. Half-shut eyes engraved with the finest symmetry. A sharp nose, followed by a lifelike mouth. A smooth complexion the colour of molten gold.
The robe of the Buddha is densely engraved with visual narratives of His ihalokiya life. He wanders in the wilderness and begs for alms; He attains enlightenment, then dispenses His transcendental knowledge to the worthy. The story of the life of Buddha is retold in His very raiment, an unputdownable visual aesthetic which would be a valuable addition to the home of the finest devotee.
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.
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.
