See It In Your Home
There is no one like Lord Avalokiteshvara. From His home in the mount of Potala, He once glanced over into the world that is ours, into ihaloka. Having witnessed for that brief moment the extent of pain and suffering prevailing herein, He broke from inside His divine self. His head split into a thousand heads, His limbs into a thousand limbs. The sculpture that you see on this page expresses on a miniature scale the divine suffering of Lord Avalokiteshvara.
He is standing on a two-tiered pedestal engraved with lotus petals. The base of Mount Potala is at His feet. His anteriormost hands are earnestly clasped before His chest, the rest of His thousands of arms laterally outstretched to form a perfectly symmetrical pair of composite semicircular structures. Head towers above head, each with its own gold crown, from the rim of which emerge a mass of beauteous golden curls.
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.
