Deity Embodied

This captivating brass statue, meticulously handcrafted in India, depicts a powerful and complex representation of the Hindu deity Shiva. More than just a beautiful art piece, it is an embodiment of divine energy, a tangible link to centuries of spiritual tradition. This piece possesses a time-honored aesthetic, bearing the marks of an antiqued finish, evoking the weight of history and the enduring nature of faith.

The Supreme Being: Unveiling Sadashiva

The multiple heads and arms of this representation are not literal, but symbolic. They signify Shiva's all-encompassing nature, his ability to perceive and act in all directions simultaneously. As Sadashiva, he is the eternal Shiva, the one beyond time and the cycles of creation and destruction. The multiple heads suggest His dominion over the elements, and control over all aspects of existence. Each face could potentially represent the elements or points of the compass.

Iconography and Symbolism

Observe the intricate details. Each element carries profound meaning. The snakes adorning his head and neck symbolize kundalini energy, the potent force of spiritual awakening that resides within us all. The third eye on his forehead, often depicted as a source of destructive fire, represents his power to perceive ultimate truth and to annihilate ignorance. One hand might be raised in the *abhaya mudra*, a gesture of reassurance and fearlessness, bestowing blessings upon devotees. Another hand holds a Trishul, the trident, a symbol of Shiva's dominion over the three worlds – heaven, earth, and the netherworld, or the three Gunas, Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas. His other arms hold different objects that signify his abilities to create, preserve, and destroy. The base of the statue often features the figure of a lion, symbolic of strength and protection, underscoring the divine power emanating from Sadashiva.

A Handmade Treasure

Crafted with care by skilled artisans, this statue is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India. The use of brass, a metal revered for its durability and spiritual properties, ensures that this sacred image will endure for generations. Every detail, from the expression on Shiva’s faces to the intricate carvings on the base, has been rendered with precision and devotion. This representation serves as a potent reminder of the divine within and the transformative power of devotion. This statue measures 14.4 x 9.0 x 5.0 inches.

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.
