The reawakening of Vishnu is blessed by Kubera the lord of wealth and prosperity which is why he bestowed in a multitude of ornaments from head to toe. Each jewellery and trinket he adorns is a blessing from Kubera and Lakshmi. On his chest is plated two figures of Lakshmi which indicates his everlasting love for her.


He stands tall in his heavy cylindrical crown which is engraved and gilded in unusual designs. Notice he bears conch a disc in his hands. The story of these two is ancient and retold. Lord Vishnu while his consort, Goddess Lakshmi, lays in repose against his chest. Thousands of years ago, a sage named Bhrigu kicked Lord Vishnu on his chest. Goddess Lakshmi forsook her husband and left his loving husband behind angrily. Frantic Lord Vishnu followed her to Earth and decided to stay until she calmed down. His everlasting love bequeathed him a present from Kubera which is why he is the world’s richest god on earth.

This brass sculpture is one of a kind in terms of its smoothness, glow, curves, and carving intensity. One of the gold necklaces that reaches his feet consists of beads with the images of Lakshmi carved on it. Every detail is magnificently carved by our finest sculptors. Lord Tirupati Balaji is embossed in a gilded crown which magnifies his splendid exquisiteness.


He stands tall on the edge of a half-moon base which is detailed with sophisticated designs. Both the goad and the conch are quite large and extremely whittle with high details. Take a look at the peculiar posture of Tripupati in which his hand is slightly resting on his hip. In Vedic literature, it is known as the Katya Vilambit hasta Mudra. It is said that it is a symbol that he would never let his devotees tolerate the trouble of the flood of the great ocean and it would only reach to the hip level

Why is Balaji’s face covered?

The beautiful transcendental form of Lord Venkateshwara Balaji is unique in so many ways. He stands bearing four arms holding a conch shell (Panchajanya) and a disc (Sudarshan Chakra) in His upper hands. While His lower arms are in different mudras to bless His devotees. He is elaborately decorated with several ornaments that look immensely beautiful. But there is something very interesting about His eyes. His forehead bears a white huge mark or Tilak known as Urdhva Pundra that covers most parts of His eyes. The reason behind this is often given that the devotees who come to take the Darshan of Lord Balaji cannot withstand the effulgence coming out of His glorious eyes and therefore the white mark or mask covers His eyes.

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.
