A Symbol of Cosmic Harmony and Divine Power

This exquisite brass wall hanging, handcrafted in Nepal, is a potent representation of Tibetan Buddhist cosmology and cultural beliefs. At its heart, the majestic Garuda, a mythical bird-like creature, is depicted in powerful detail, wings outstretched and ready for flight. In Buddhist traditions, the Garuda is revered as a divine being that combats Nagas (serpents) and represents wisdom, strength, and the overcoming of ignorance and negative forces. It is often associated with the sun, and its fiery nature symbolizes the dispelling of darkness. The intricate craftsmanship brings to life the Garuda's formidable presence, making it a captivating centerpiece.

The Twelve Animals of Tibetan Astrology

Encircling the central Garuda is a band featuring the twelve animals of the Tibetan zodiac. These animals, each representing a year and an associated set of characteristics, form a cyclical representation of time and destiny. From the Rat to the Pig, their detailed depictions are imbued with the artistry characteristic of Nepalese metalwork. The Tibetan zodiac is deeply intertwined with the Buddhist faith and influences personal attributes, relationships, and even prognostication. Each animal in this circular mandala signifies a distinct elemental and personality influence, creating a comprehensive tapestry of life's cycles and the interconnectedness of all beings within the universe. The inclusion of these zodiac animals alongside the Garuda suggests a profound spiritual and astrological significance, serving as a constant reminder of the cosmic order and one's place within it.

A Sacred Guardian for Your Space

This wall hanging is more than just an ornament; it is a sacred artifact designed to bring protection, wisdom, and balance to your home or meditation space. The Garuda's formidable gaze is believed to ward off negative energies and bring auspiciousness, while the zodiac animals serve as a reminder of the flow of time and the inherent nature of existence. Its creation in Nepal, a land deeply rooted in Buddhist traditions, imbues it with authentic spiritual energy and artisanal excellence. The rich patina of the brass, achieved through skilled crafting and potentially through years of veneration, adds to its antique charm and profound aesthetic appeal. This piece is a testament to the enduring power of symbolism and the artistry of Tibetan culture, offering a unique way to connect with ancient wisdom and bring a touch of sacred beauty into your environment.

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.
