$1365

The dance of Shiva stems from Chidambaram, the heart or the core of one’s being. It is called the tandavam, the omnipotent nritya (dance) of the divine annihilator. His name is Lord Nataraja, king (‘raja’) of the performing arts (‘nata’ from ‘nrtya’), one of the most powerful and the most instantly recognisable form of Lord Shiva. The circular silhouette of flames it is contained in is symbolic of the cyclical nature of illusion and existence.


A pure brass composition with strategic infusions of a dark, mossy green. Lord Nataraja dances with abandon, the right foot set deep against the body of Apasmara, who is but personified avidya. The left leg is raised high in the air, indicative of the vigorous, destructive nature of Shivatandavam. The damroo and the flame in His posterior hands are indicative of the twin projective-annihilative nature of Lord Shiva (without one, the other would not happen). The highly characteristic mudra of the anterior hands; the body of a snake flaying to the right, a strip of the Lord’s angavastram to the right. Finally, a handsome face framed crowned with the multiple hoods of a deadly serpent and framed by thick locks flaying across the shoulders.


The aureole surrounding the central figure is a rind of flower-studded vine, from which emerge discrete flames of a destructive fire. There are hints of the head of a mythical trunked creature at the base of the aureole, on either side of the vanquished Apasmara.

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.
