The Essence of Teaching

This handcrafted brass statue captures the Lord Buddha in the Vitarka Mudra, a gesture symbolizing teaching and intellectual discussion. The right hand is raised, with the thumb and index finger touching, forming a circle, which represents the continuous flow of energy, knowledge, and wisdom. It is a reminder of the Buddha’s profound teachings, the eightfold path, and the pursuit of enlightenment. The Vitarka Mudra is often associated with the transmission of knowledge and the clearing of doubts. By engaging in dialogue and contemplation, we can move closer to understanding the true nature of reality. The gentle expression on the Buddha’s face exudes compassion and serenity, inviting contemplation and reflection.

Auspicious Dragons

Intricately etched into the robes of the Buddha are depictions of dragons, powerful and auspicious creatures deeply ingrained in Asian mythology. Dragons symbolize strength, wisdom, and good fortune, often associated with emperors and spiritual leaders. In Buddhist art, dragons can represent protectors of the Dharma, the teachings of the Buddha. The inclusion of these mythical beings elevates the statue, adding a layer of power and majesty.

Handmade with Devotion

This statue is crafted by skilled artisans in India. The rich detailing, from the folds of the robes to the intricate designs on the lotus base, showcases the dedication and artistry involved in its creation. The brass material lends a sense of solidity and timelessness, ensuring that it will be a cherished piece for generations. The lotus, upon which the Buddha sits, is a symbol of purity and enlightenment, rising from the muddy waters to bloom in all its glory. Each curve and line is carefully shaped, reflecting a deep reverence for the Buddha and his teachings. This statue is more than just a decorative piece; it is a work of art imbued with spiritual meaning.

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.
