Antique Indian Brass Folk Figure on Stand

Details

A charming piece of Indian vernacular metalwork, likely cast using the lost-wax technique found in tribal traditions. This small brass figure depicts a female attendant or devotee in a dynamic, cross-legged dance pose. She holds a shallow bowl or lamp in her right hand, traditionally used to offer light or blessings. The casting is somewhat naive and rustic, typical of folk bronzes, with simple facial features and stylized jewelry. Over time, the brass has developed a mellow, antique patina that contrasts warmly with the dark wood of the custom cylindrical stand. **Please bear in mind that colors of products shown may vary slightly from their original color due to monitor display settings or photography studio.
