As a symbol, the chakra is very important in Vaishnava philosophy. In terms of shape, it is without beginning and without end. As such, it stands for time which, like a wheel, progresses with its own passage in circular fashion.
The chakra sculpture that you see on this page is fashioned from pure bronze. It is propped up by a pair of gigantic silken ribbons. Within the chakra is a simplistic but ornately carved floral motif. Such motifs are a fixture in traditional South Indian visual arts. The ensemble described heretofore is placed on a quadrilateral plinth featuring two tiers.
If you observe this chakra sculpture from multiple angles, you would notice the superb precision and the perfect symmetry with which this has been executed. Handpicked from the studios of traditional South Indian bronzeworkers, this Vaishnava symbol would be a great buy.
