A Throne Fit for the Divine: The Kirtimukha Brass Seat

Elevate your sacred space with this exquisite 8-inch brass throne, a masterpiece of traditional Indian craftsmanship. Designed to be the regal seat for your beloved deity, this handcrafted piece exudes an aura of divine majesty and enduring spiritual significance. The lustrous brass, polished to a warm, inviting glow, speaks of ancient traditions and the timeless pursuit of devotion.

Embodying Protection and Auspiciousness: The Kirtimukha Motif

Dominating the apex of this magnificent throne is the Kirtimukha, a powerful and auspicious motif in Hindu iconography. Often translated as "Face of Glory," the Kirtimukha is depicted as a fierce, leonine face, swallowing all. Legend has it that Lord Vishnu, in his Narasimha avatar, was challenged by a powerful demon. When the demon became uncontrollable, Vishnu created a being from his nail, which was neither man nor beast, but a fearsome entity with a lion's face. This being, the Kirtimukha, devoured the demon, thus restoring balance. It is also said that the Kirtimukha was originally a celestial being who, out of pride, refused to give way to the sun god Surya. Angered, Surya cursed him to be devoured by his own mouth. The Kirtimukha is thus a symbol of immense power, protection, and the ultimate victory of good over evil. Its presence atop this throne signifies the divine's all-encompassing power and its watchful guardianship.

Intricate Design and Symbolic Embellishments

The artistry extends beyond the central Kirtimukha. The arched canopy above is a delicate lattice of floral motifs and intricate carvings, reminiscent of temple architecture and the divine gardens of celestial realms. Flanking the seat, two magnificent mythical creatures, likely Garuda or a similar divine bird, stand guard. Their majestic forms, rendered with meticulous detail, symbolize swiftness, power, and the ability to transcend earthly limitations. The base of the throne is equally adorned with elaborate patterns and ornate legs, reflecting a deep understanding of decorative arts and spiritual symbolism. Each element, from the smallest bead-like accent to the grandest curve, has been thoughtfully crafted by skilled artisans, infusing the piece with a sense of sacred energy.

A Sanctuary for Your Deities

This Kirtimukha throne is more than just a decorative item; it is an invitation to deepen your spiritual practice. Imagine placing your cherished murti or idol upon this opulent seat, transforming your puja room or altar into a truly sacred sanctuary. The throne provides a focal point for devotion, allowing your deity to preside with regal grace. The presence of the Kirtimukha and the guardian creatures imbues the space with a sense of protection and divine presence. This brass throne is a testament to the enduring beauty and profound symbolism of Indian art and spirituality, offering a tangible connection to the divine for your home.

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.
