A Celestial Cycle Embodied in Brass

This exquisite circular wall hanging is a testament to the rich artistry and profound symbolism prevalent in Tibetan culture. Crafted from brass and adorned with intricate inlay work, it encapsulates the twelve signs of the zodiac, a concept deeply interwoven with astrological beliefs and the passage of time across various traditions. Each of the twelve celestial animals is rendered with remarkable detail, their forms exuding a sense of dynamism and personality. From the majestic lion to the cunning rat, these figures are arranged in a circular procession, mirroring the cyclical nature of the cosmos and the ever-turning wheel of destiny.

The Twelve Animals: A Cosmic Dance

The twelve animals represented are the foundational elements of the Tibetan astrological system, which shares similarities with the Chinese zodiac but possesses its own unique interpretations and cultural significance. These animals are not merely decorative; they are believed to influence personality traits, destinies, and the overall harmony of the universe. Their placement in a circular formation is highly symbolic, representing the continuous flow of life, the interconnectedness of all beings, and the ever-present rhythm of the heavens. The vibrant inlay work, featuring hues reminiscent of precious stones and earthy minerals, adds a layer of depth and visual appeal, enhancing the spiritual aura of the piece.

The Heart of the Mandala: A Sacred Symbol

At the very center of this celestial disc lies a powerful and multifaceted symbol, likely a representation of a stupa or a significant dharmic emblem. This central motif, rendered in gleaming brass and surrounded by vibrant turquoise and red inlays, serves as the focal point, anchoring the entire composition. In Buddhist cosmology, the stupa is a sacred monument that symbolizes the enlightened mind of the Buddha, the path to enlightenment, and the dissolution of suffering. Its presence here, at the heart of the zodiacal cycle, suggests a profound connection between the earthly realm, as represented by the zodiac, and the spiritual journey towards liberation. This integration speaks to the holistic worldview where the mundane and the sacred are inextricably linked.

A Legacy of Craftsmanship and Spirituality

This piece is more than just a decorative item; it is a conduit to ancient wisdom and a celebration of masterful craftsmanship. The use of brass, a metal revered for its durability and auspicious qualities, further imbues the artwork with significance. The meticulous inlay work, a technique honed over centuries, showcases the dedication and skill of the artisans. Displaying this wall hanging in your home is not only an aesthetic choice but also an invitation to connect with the profound philosophical and spiritual currents that have shaped civilizations for millennia. It serves as a constant reminder of the cosmic order, the cycles of existence, and the enduring pursuit of spiritual understanding.

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.
