A fluting Krishna idol for the Bhakta of Krishna is the sole source of beauty, divinity, and auspiciousness, whose presence in their space dispels fears and fills the heart with the sweetness (Maadhurya) of Krishna's loveliness.
This wooden statue of the blue-skinned Lord is infused with enchanting colors, which contrast and balance each other aesthetically, creating an animated vision of Murli-Manohara.
Krishna is adorned with various regal ornaments, bright red attire, and a distinctive Mukuta stands in Tribhanga pose, revered by a pair of Gopikas sitting in the foreground of the statue, offering Krishna his favorite Makhan.
In front of them are pots of plenty, symbolizing abundance and auspiciousness. The platform of Krishna is a separate piece of art, filled with powerful scenes of his Lilas, filling the icon with the nectar of Krishna's illustrious life.
How to care for Wood Statues?
Wood is extensively used in sculpting especially in countries like China, Germany, and Japan. One feature that makes the wood extremely suitable for making statues and sculptures is that it is light and can take very fine detail. It is easier for artists to work with wood than with other materials such as metal or stone. Both hardwoods, as well as softwood, are used for making sculptures. Wood is mainly used for indoor sculptures because it is not as durable as stone. Changes in weather cause wooden sculptures to split or be attacked by insects or fungus. The principal woods for making sculptures and statues are cedar, pine, walnut, oak, and mahogany. The most common technique that sculptors use to make sculptures out of wood is carving with a chisel and a mallet. Since wooden statues are prone to damage, fire, and rot, they require proper care and maintenance.
It is extremely important to preserve and protect wooden sculptures with proper care. A little carelessness and negligence can lead to their decay, resulting in losing all their beauty and strength. Therefore, a regular clean-up of the sculptures is a must to prolong their age and to maintain their shine and luster.
