Well-crafted and highly detailed bronze sculptures are the speciality of Hoysala art that originated in South India during the reign of the Hoysala Empire between the 10th and 14th centuries. Temple Garbhagrihas had exceptionally beautiful idols of gods and goddesses. There is something so stunning about the craftsmanship of the Hoysala art that attracts so many admirers from across the world. The skilled artisans used Panchaloha Bronze for casting the icons. Panchaloha Bronze is made of five metals: Copper, Zinc, Lead, and small quantities of Gold and Silver. Zinc gives a golden hue to the finished figure and Lead makes the alloy softer for the easy application of a chisel and hammer. The common technique for producing these statues and sculptures is the “Lost wax” method. Because of the high durability of bronze sculptures and statues, less maintenance is required, and can still last up to many decades.
