Brass Tribal Folk Dance Couple Showpiece · Bell Metal

Cast in brass and bell metal by the metalsmiths of Madhya Pradesh using the lost-wax method: each form is first modelled in wax, encased in clay and then filled with molten metal, so every mould is used only once.

Shown here in an antique gold finish. Chosen piece by piece for Saptadhārā.

The details

• Material: Brass (Bhareva Metal Craft)
• Finish: Antique Brass Finish with Fine Handcrafted Detailing

Caring for it

• Wipe with a soft dry cloth.
• Polish occasionally with a little tamarind or a brass cleaner to bring back the shine.
• Keep dry and away from moisture.

Finished and polished by hand. Made by hand, so small irregularities are a mark of the maker, not a flaw.
