Embodiment of Serenity and Divine Power

This exquisite brass statue captures the serene yet powerful essence of Lord Shiva, the supreme deity in Hinduism. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail by skilled artisans in India, this piece is a testament to centuries-old artistic traditions. Lord Shiva, often depicted as the destroyer and transformer, is also revered as the source of all creation and the ultimate consciousness. His calm demeanor in this sculpture, seated in a meditative posture, invites contemplation and inner peace. The rich, antique brass finish lends a timeless aura, making it a striking centerpiece for any sacred space or home decor.

Symbolism and Iconography

Every element of this statue is imbued with profound symbolism. Lord Shiva's third eye, not explicitly visible but implied by his tranquil gaze, signifies his all-seeing wisdom and ability to perceive beyond the material world. The crescent moon adorning his matted locks is a symbol of his mastery over time and his connection to the cyclical nature of existence. The coiled serpent, Vasuki, around his neck represents his control over ego and desires, as well as his inherent power to overcome all negativities. The rosary of rudraksha beads signifies his ascetic nature and his profound spiritual discipline.

The Auspicious Attributes

In one hand, Lord Shiva holds the Trishul, his primary weapon, symbolizing the three fundamental aspects of consciousness – consciousness, subconsciousness, and unconsciousness – or the three qualities of nature (Gunas) – Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. It also represents the power to destroy evil, ignorance, and illusion. The damaru, a small hand drum, often associated with Shiva, represents the primal sound of creation, 'Om,' from which the universe emanates. The gesture of the raised hand, known as Abhaya Mudra, signifies protection and reassurance, bestowing blessings and dispelling fear. The intricate carvings on the base, possibly representing a tiger skin or a lion, allude to Shiva's victory over primal forces and his fearless nature. This statue is more than just an object of art; it is a conduit for invoking divine blessings and cultivating spiritual harmony.

Craftsmanship and Heritage

This magnificent statue is a product of India's rich heritage of brass casting. The lost-wax casting technique, used for centuries, ensures intricate detailing and a flawless finish. Each piece is handmade, guaranteeing its uniqueness and adding to its value. The fusion of copper and zinc that forms brass is believed to have auspicious properties, making it a favored material for religious iconography. The weight and substantial feel of the brass further enhance the reverence associated with the deity it represents. Owning this statue is not just acquiring an artifact, but also connecting with the lineage of artisans who have preserved this sacred craft for generations.

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.
