30.5" solid brass Ram — large rayed halo, ornate crown, painted facial features with tilak, multiple beaded necklaces, dhoti with painted patterns, bow extending from base to above head. Hand-cast in Moradabad, the brass-craft capital of India, by artisans whose families have been working in metal for generations.

About this deity

Lord Ram, the seventh avatar of Vishnu and the prince of Ayodhya, is dharma made visible — the just king, the ideal son, the steadfast husband. Bow in hand, calm in face, he represents the human ideal lived honourably.

Specifications

Craft notes

Hand-painted enamel work in the meenakari tradition — each colour band laid into engraved channels, fired, and polished. The craft is centuries old; the technique cannot be machined. 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

A versatile piece — works in a pooja room, an entryway, or as a tabletop accent. Polish occasionally to maintain finish.
