About this deity
Lord Krishna, the eighth avatar of Vishnu, is the cowherd-prince of Vrindavan and the divine charioteer of the Bhagavad Gita. He stands in tribhanga — three bends of the body — playing the bansuri flute, drawing the soul home with sound. Krishna represents divine love, joy, and the lila of life itself.

Craft notes
The piece is finished in antique brass — a deliberately darkened patina that settles into recesses and brings out engraved detail. It softens with time and use. The piece is solid brass throughout — there is no plating, no hollow shell. Slight variations in finish, dimension, and weight are inherent to the handmade process and are part of the character of each piece.
Care & placement
Use as a dry vase or with a glass liner if displaying fresh flowers. Polish occasionally with brass cleaner to maintain the bright finish.

Care & placement
Wipe regularly with a soft dry cloth. Avoid harsh detergents. Brass darkens slightly with age — a soft patina is part of the character. Polish gently with a brass cleaner to restore brightness.
