A Buddha-head wall-hanging such as the one you see on this page is a statement piece of home decor. Not only is it exotic and replete with meaning, but it also doubles as an object of worship and/or visualisation sadhana.
This, of course, has a lot to do with the standard of aesthetics that defines the composition. Handpicked from the studios of the finest artisans in the subcontinent, it far from fails on that account.
This Buddha-head is fashioned from pure brass. The finish is a coppery colour with earthy green overtones, which adds to the soothing quality of the work of art.
Indeed the image of the dhyani (contemplative) Buddha is one of the most calming images in the world, to which this mask is no exception. A profound, contemplative composure has been somehow infused into the handsome features of the erstwhile Shakyamuni. Understandably He is in the finest recesses of samadhi or yogic contemplation, which led Him to Buddhahood under the Bodh Gaya.
The monotone of the composition is brought out by the singular presence of gold. On the convolutions of those long-lobed ears and the tiny stoopa at the zenith of His bun, the colour adds some much-needed lustre to the wall-hanging.
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.
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.
