$810
FREE Delivery

The shut-eyed face of Lord Buddha. A wide-set brow, resembling the wings of the mighty albatross. Betwixt them, the semblance of a third eye. A sweet, introspective mouth. Framed by earlobes lengthened by wisdom accumulated over ages and lifetimes.


A massive head of curls, the silhouette of which resembles the traditional Buddhist stoopa. Below an unassuming decolletage, with the pleats of the robe thrown over one shoulder. The most striking aspect of this Buddha bust, however, is the elongated, densely carved aureole that starts at one shoulder and ends at the other.


This Buddha bust is made from pure brass. The pure brass medium lends it a resplendent gold colour, which is symbolic of the divinity inherent in the erstwhile Shakyamuni and the timelessness of all that He stands for.

The bust of the Shakyamuni Buddha, steeped in contemplation. Son of King Shuddhodhana and Queen Mayadevi, He is the renunciate supreme. It was shortly after attaining to adulthood that He chose to leave the luxuries of His princely life behind - wife and son and wealth alike - for a life of self-seeking and wandering. Mendicancy, mortification, austerity, within a few years Gautama Buddha had been through it all. When He stopped for shade beneath the Bodhi tree at Gaya, He was already preparing for the higher recesses of samadhi.

Seedless and asamprajnata, the sculpture that you see on this page depicts a higher-order yogic state of mind. Half-shut eyes beneath a wide-set brow. A long, sharp nose. A gorgeously sculpted mouth. Hints of the third golaka (organ) of vision upon the midbrow. The lengthened lobes of a pair of shapely ears that frame His handsome face. A thick mass of curls gathered atop His head, making for a strikingly familiar silhouette at the zenith.

Note the aureole that frames the Buddha bust that you see on this page. It is a compact, intricately engraved number. Each panel along its elongated, gently curving frame has been carved in perfect symmetry with the other. Curvaceous coils like the mouths of numerous lotuses, freshwater foam from which they grow, and the tendrils of unassuming vines along the base. Such a Buddha bust would add to the aesthetics of the space of any devotee.






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.
