Shukasaptati, a Sanskrit anthology of 70 stories is an ancient Indian text, believed to be the collection of stories told to the wife of a wealthy merchant, one story each night, for 70 days, in a bid to prevent her from meeting her lover in the absence of her husband. The parrot narrated curious tales which ended in a lesson in morality for the wife, successfully keeping the wife within the limits of her household. This is one of the many Indian tales revolving around a woman and her pet parrot. As birds who can mimic human speech, parrots have always been closely attached to the everyday affairs of a home. They are the vahana (carriers) of the Kama, the Hindu god of Love and Desire, thus their association with a young woman can be seen as imagery of eroticism.

The lady stands on a beautifully inlaid platform, in a tasteful posture. Ornaments studded with precious gemstones of red and green, and a dhoti of red and green owing to the red and turquoise shades of inlay of work, add charm to the youthful figure of the lady. Her hips are shapely, her waist is narrow, her nose is sharp and her eyes speak volumes. She is the ideal woman, in every way. Her parrot sits on her left arm, the singular focus of the attention of the lady. With her right hand, she forms the Shuni Mudra- a gesture that signifies patience. Learning from the stories that her pet tells her, and waiting for her husband, the lady calls upon her inner strength, in order to restraint herself from crossing the threshold of her husband’s home.

 

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.
