The Destroyer and Transformer

This meticulously crafted brass statue embodies Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities of Hinduism. Shiva, often referred to as the Destroyer, is not simply a force of annihilation. He is, more accurately, the Transformer, the one who dissolves the old to make way for the new, paving the path for renewal and positive change. His role is crucial in the cosmic cycle of creation, preservation, and destruction. This statue captures the essence of Shiva, inviting contemplation and reverence for his profound power.

Iconography and Symbolism

The statue presents Shiva seated in a meditative posture, radiating serenity despite the immense power he embodies. His peaceful expression reflects the inner calm that underlies the dynamic energy he represents. The intricate details tell a story of Shiva's multifaceted nature. The serpent coiled around his neck symbolizes the control he exercises over ego and worldly desires. In one hand, he holds the Trishul, his iconic trident, representing the three fundamental aspects of consciousness: will, action, and wisdom. In the other hand, he makes the Abhaya Mudra, a gesture of reassurance and fearlessness, bestowing blessings and protection upon devotees. His matted hair (Jata), piled high on his head, signifies his ascetic lifestyle and spiritual power.

Artisanship from India

This statue is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India. Handcrafted by skilled artisans, each detail is painstakingly rendered, showcasing their mastery of traditional techniques. The use of brass lends a timeless quality to the piece, its warm hue and subtle sheen adding to its aesthetic appeal. The statue is not just a representation of a deity; it is a work of art, a tangible expression of devotion and artistic skill passed down through generations. The base upon which Shiva sits is decorated with intricate carvings, further enhancing its beauty and cultural significance. Dimensions: 17.0 x 12.0 x 8.6 inch Material: Brass Origin: India Process: Handmade

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.
