The Majestic Garuda and the Twelve Animals of the Zodiac

This exquisite brass wall hanging, meticulously crafted in Nepal, is a testament to the rich artistic and spiritual heritage of Tibetan Buddhism. At its heart lies a powerful depiction of the Garuda, the divine king of birds, a creature imbued with immense symbolic significance in Buddhist lore. Known for its strength, speed, and ability to conquer demons and serpents, the Garuda embodies protection, vigilance, and the triumph of wisdom over ignorance. Its fierce yet noble visage, rendered in intricate detail, commands attention and inspires awe, serving as a potent symbol of spiritual awakening and warding off negative influences. ––––––––––

A Celestial Cycle of Protection and Destiny

Encircling the central Garuda is a band of twelve intricately detailed animal figures, representing the twelve animals of the Tibetan zodiac. Each animal – the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, bird, dog, and boar – corresponds to a year in the twelve-year cycle and is believed to influence the personality and destiny of those born under its sign. In Tibetan culture, the zodiac is not merely an astrological system but a fundamental part of understanding oneself and the interconnectedness of all beings within the natural world. This circular arrangement signifies the ceaseless flow of time and the cosmic order, with the Garuda acting as a powerful protector of this celestial dance. ––––––––––

Artistry from the Roof of the World

This stunning piece is more than just a decorative item; it is a bridge to ancient traditions and spiritual practices. Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Nepal, a region deeply intertwined with Tibetan culture, the brass construction lends a timeless and substantial quality to the artwork. The aged patina enhances the depth and intricacy of the carvings, giving the piece a sense of history and authenticity. Hang it in your meditation space, living room, or entryway to bring a touch of sacred beauty and protective energy into your home. Its circular form also evokes the mandala, a spiritual diagram in Buddhist art that represents the universe and a place for meditation. This wall hanging serves as a visual anchor for contemplation, reminding viewers of the cyclical nature of life and the ever-present forces of protection and guidance.

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.
