    A dazzling brass idol of Amman or Mariamman, a goddess of rain, predominant in rural areas of South India. She is the main Tamil mother goddess who has been associated with Hindu goddesses Parvathi, Kali, Durga, Rukmini, Sita and Draupadi. She is considered as the guardian deity by many South Indian village dwellers.

    The idol portrays the goddess seated in lalithasana with the left leg tucked in and the right leg held down on a high pedestal, with the five headed snake hooding over her. In her four hands, she is seen holding the knife, skull cap, damaru coiled by a snake and a noose.  The idol made of metal casting is ideal for daily worship in the home shrine or a piece of décor in the living room.

    LOST WAX METHOD OF CASTING - The lost wax method allows for intricate and detailed sculptures to be created, capturing the artist's original vision with precision. It is a complex process that requires skill and expertise in both sculpture and metal casting techniques. Also known as precision casting, it is a technique used to create bronze sculptures and other metal objects with intricate details. The process involves creating a wax model of the object, building a mold around it using plaster and silica, melting the wax out of the mold, selecting a metallic alloy, melting the alloy in a crucible, and pouring the molten metal into the mold cavity. The molten metal solidifies in the mold, and the cast object is extracted and finished. The sprues and any excess metal are removed, and the surface is cleaned and finished through various techniques like grinding, polishing, and patination.
