Description

The process of casting two metals together to form these beautiful icons was developed during the 17/18th Century. During this period some were cast but because of the nature of the process sadly many failed. Today, alas, the skill has been forgotten and we can only wonder what would be available today had it remained with us.

This is an exceptional image of Balakrishna as the child who stole the butter ball. The appliance of the lighter bronze is incredible in its detail. For example each individual ring, bracelet etc has been accentuated by this process.

Whe have an extensive collection of GJ (Gangajummna) pieces and will be showcasing several of them on the site.
