{"product_id":"3-butter-krishna-super-fine-brass-brown-gold-finish","title":"3″ Butter Krishna | Super Fine Brass | Brown Gold Finish","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis handcrafted Bal Krishna idol, cast in super fine brass, stands 3 inches (7.5 cm) tall, 2 inches (5 cm) wide, and 1.65 inches (4 cm) deep, weighing approximately 120 g, and presents the infant Krishna in a seated posture — legs folded, one hand raised toward his mouth in the iconic butter-stealing gesture, the other resting on a round pot held at his side.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe figure is produced using traditional lost-wax casting, a method that demands close attention at every stage from wax modelling through mould preparation, metal pour, and hand finishing. At this compact scale, the casting resolves a considerable amount of detail: the child's open, laughing expression is clearly defined, with rounded cheeks and a wide smile that reads as immediate and unselfconscious. Curling hair frames the face, and a decorative crown ornament — worked with layered, leaf-shaped forms — sits at the top of the head with the crispness that super fine brass sustains even at small dimensions. Bead necklaces are rendered across the chest, the dhoti folds fall with natural weight across the legs, and the butter pot beside him is modelled with care, its rim and surface distinct. The flat rectangular base grounds the figure and allows it to sit steadily.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBal Krishna — the child form of Lord Krishna — holds a particular place in Indian devotional life. The image of the young Krishna reaching for butter, known as Makhan Chor, is among the most beloved and widely kept forms in Hindu households. It represents innocence, divine play, and the intimate, accessible face of the divine — a god who is also a mischievous, joyful child. This form is central to the Vaishnava tradition and is venerated across regions of India with deep personal affection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrass, an alloy of copper and zinc, has been central to Indian devotional and decorative metalwork for centuries. It holds fine cast detail with high fidelity, develops a warm tonal depth over time, and is structurally durable — qualities that suit it equally for active ritual use and long-term display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis sculpture carries a brown gold finish, visible in the deep warm brown that settles across the body, the base, and the pot, set against the brighter gold tone that reads across the crown ornament, the necklaces, and select raised surfaces of the face and garment. The contrast gives the piece tonal depth and draws focus to the ornamentation and expression. Handcrafted pieces carry natural variation in surface texture and tone between individual sculptures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Bal Krishna idol is well suited for a puja room or home altar, for gifting on occasions such as Janmashtami or Krishna Jayanti, or as a collector's piece in Indian devotional brassware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e At Cosmic Studio, every sculpture is individually handcrafted, ensuring no two pieces are exactly alike. Minor variations in color, texture, and detailing are a natural result of the artisanal process and are considered marks of authenticity. These unique characteristics, along with potential differences in lighting and screen displays, may cause the product to appear slightly different from the images shown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cosmic Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44115095683107,"sku":"CS-PART1-OCT-0614","price":1899.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/0448\/0547\/files\/DZ6A0614.webp?v=1793361043","url":"https:\/\/cosmicstudio.in\/products\/3-butter-krishna-super-fine-brass-brown-gold-finish","provider":"Cosmic Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
