Product description: Shiva in this pose appears in eternal motion. The bronze statue depicts Lord Nataraja in a blazing fire circle called the prabha mandala, a ring of flames, symbolizing the cycle of creation and destruction. He has 8 arms, each arm holds symbolic objects like, damaru, fire bowl, snake, danda, sword, shield, and his front right hand is in abhaya mudra, while left hand is in a dance gesture. The face of Nataraja has a calm expression with an enigmatic smile, reflecting his benevolence and compassion. His third eye, a symbol of wisdom and insight, is subtly engraved on his forehead. His right foot is elegantly raised, symbolizing liberation, while his left foot stands on the demon Apasmara, representing ignorance. Every detail, from the delicate features of Shiva's face to the flowing locks of his hair, is meticulously handcrafted, and the weathered bronze patina imparts an earthy hue, as though Nature itself has embraced the statue, and this patina is the hallmark of traditional bronze statuary. The statue of bronze Nataraja is certainly admirable, one of a kind statue made using the lost-wax method; an expert craftsmanship by our South Indian bronze artisan.
