The distinguishing aspect of this wide-bottomed Buddha composition is the glamorous golden colour. The Sanskrit word for gold is ‘svarna’; ‘svarnima’ stands for that which is golden. A fine example of brass sculpture, the element of gold in Indian Hindoo-Buddhist iconography has little to do with materialistic plenty. Gold stands for the shining light of vidya (knowledge or, more appropriately, awareness), the colour of all-encompassing sustainability and nobility.

The Buddha is nothing less than svarnima. After years of renunciation of a princely life, severe asceticism in the unforgiving wilderness of North India, abject mendicancy, and yogic introspection, the light had finally descended on Him. Under the Bodhi tree He had attained Buddhahood and, as proof of His status, delivered the dharmachakraparivartana sermon to the finest teachers of the time. In this murti, His hand is in the vitarkamudra, the gesture (mudra) of deliberation and debate (vitarka).

Note how a richly embroidered robe is carved over this monotone composition, distinguished from the exposed parts of the skin at His wrist and ankle and upper torso. A straight-sculpted face, the expression on it solemn. His lengthened earlobes are pierced for insertion of the kundalas. High-precision sculpture of the hair. Finally, a superfine pedestal - the usual double-tiers of lotus petals, but one that predomiantes the elements of the iconography.

Seated atop a vast lotus-form as lustrous as His own form, Lord Buddha is depicted in this unusual brass sculpture in the vitarka mudra that stands for dialogue and/or teaching (the circle formed by the thumb and the index finger symbolizes the cyclical flow of energy and information). Pick this one for a resplendent addition to your space.



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.
