A fine example of Nepalese iconography and handiwork. The wrathful aspect of almost every Hindu deity finds a place in the popular devotional imagination of the Hindus of Nepal and, consequently, in the art and sculpture produced in the region. The wrathful Ganesha mask that you see on this page is an authentic, handpicked work.
It is sculpted from pure brass in near-perfect symmetry. Ornate five-spired crown, beneath which a wrathful gaze directed downwards (such that you may hang it up high on one of your walls). Statement, bitone elephant ears. A short trunk, on either side of which the Lord’s hands wield laddoos and blessings.
The burnished gold and dark, coppery colour finish add to the solemnity of the composition. Not to mention, the fully developed third eye and the five-hooded naga (Shaivite symbolism) above the crown.
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. 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.
