His beautiful consort, Goddess Parvati, garbed in a finely draped alluring saree carries lotus, a symbol of purity, similar to her nature and the other hand wrapped around her husband’s waist as a mark of togetherness. Shiva and Parvati represent the ideal couple for love, respect and honour; carved here in mesmerized briefings of expressions and other accessories.

Not to forget, Lord Ganesha, their elephant headed son, sits in the centre on Shiva’s lap in a blessing of fearlessness and carries his favourite bowl of laddoos in the other hand. Ganesha, the primeval and friendly god is an embodiment of buddhi (intellect) and siddhi (fulfilment). All moulded in benevolent form and pleasing personalities; highly ornamented in beautiful crowns and jewels glorifying their persona.

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.

• Another way is to cleanse the statue with mild soap, warm water, and a cotton cloth. You must go to every inch of the statue and even to the crevices and cracks. After this, clean the article with a dry towel to wipe off pools of water left on the surface.

• 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.
