Handcrafted Brass Metal Dokra Art Nandi
Price :2500/-
Handcrafted Brass Metal Dokra Art Nandi is a traditional piece of Indian art made using the Dokra craft, which is a form of non-ferrous metal casting, usually with brass. The term "Nandi" refers to the sacred bull, which is associated with Lord Shiva in Hindu mythology.
This type of art is made using an ancient technique known as the "lost-wax casting" method, where the artisan creates a wax model of the object (in this case, a Nandi) and then coats it with a clay shell. The shell is heated, melting the wax and leaving a mold, which is then filled with molten brass. Once cooled, the mold is broken to reveal the intricately designed brass sculpture.
The Nandi statue, which is often used for worship or as an ornamental piece, typically showcases detailed craftsmanship with a rustic, tribal aesthetic. These brass sculptures are popular as decorative items and can add a cultural and spiritual touch to any space. They often reflect a blend of traditional and contemporary art forms, making them unique and valuable.
