In the tranquil realm of artistic reverence, Lord Yogi Buddha sits in the ethereal embrace of “Dhyana Mudra”, his form an exquisite manifestation of spiritual grace. The rhythmic dance of his long dreadlocks whispers secrets of ancient wisdom. Kundals, like celestial ornaments, grace his ears, echoing the universe’s eternal melody. His ethereal form, skinny yet sublime, transcends earthly bounds. Closed eyes reveal the cosmic tapestry within, where galaxies weave stories of existence. The divine Chakra, a radiant halo, crowns his serenity, pulsating with the cosmic energy of creation. Crafted painstakingly in brass, this mesmerising artwork from Nepal is a hymn to introspection, a visual ode to the boundless depths where the soul dances with the cosmos in harmonious serenity.
Eternal Brilliance Unveiled: The Mystique of Panchaloha Bronze and Artful Maintenance Rituals
Bronze is a metal alloy that has the primary composition of Copper and Tin. There is also an addition of other metals such as Manganese, Aluminium, Nickel, and some non-metals such as Phosphorus. This composition of several metals and non-metals makes Bronze an extremely durable and strong metal alloy. It is for this reason that Bronze is extensively used for casting sculptures and statues. Since Bronze has a low melting point, it usually tends to fill in the finest details of a mould and when it cools down, it shrinks a little that makes it easier to separate from the mould.
" If you happen to have a bronze statue, simply use a cotton cloth with some coconut oil or any other natural oil to clean the statue. "
A village named Swamimalai in South India is especially known for exceptionally well-crafted Bronze icons of Hindu Gods and Goddesses. The skilled artisans of this place use Panchaloha Bronze for casting the icons. Panchaloha Bronze is made of five metals; Copper, Zinc, Lead, and small quantities of Gold and Silver. Zinc gives a golden hue to the finished figure and Lead makes the alloy softer for the easy application of a chisel and hammer. The common technique for producing these statues and sculptures is the “Lost-wax” method. Because of the high durability of bronze sculptures and statues, less maintenance is required, and can still last up to many decades.
Exotic India takes great pride in its collection of hand-picked Panchaloha Statues. You will find the murtis of Gods (Krishna, Hanuman, Narasimha, Ganesha, Nataraja, and Kartikeya) and Goddesses (Saraswati, Lakshmi, Durga, and Parvati), and Buddha statues.

All these statues and items have been made with a lot of care and attention, giving them a flawless finish. Their fine carving detail represents the rich tradition of India.
