{"product_id":"3-sitting-butter-krishana-super-fine-brass-polished-finish","title":"3″ Sitting Butter Krishana | Super Fine Brass | Polished Finish","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Bal Krishna idol, cast in super fine brass, stands 3 inches (8 cm) tall, 3 inches (8 cm) wide, and 3 inches (8 cm) deep, weighing approximately 140 g, and depicts the young Krishna in a seated posture with both hands drawing forward a large ornamental butter pot — the iconic form of Makhan Chor, the beloved child deity caught in the act of reaching for butter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sculpture is produced using traditional lost-wax casting, a technique that allows the compact complexity of this seated child form to be resolved with precision across every surface. Krishna is shown seated with legs folded, his weight settled naturally onto a flat circular base with engraved and petal-molded detailing around the rim. Both arms extend forward, hands clasping the sides of a wide-mouthed, ornamentally banded pot whose upper edge is finished with a clean beaded border. The face carries a broad, open smile — immediately expressive and childlike — beneath a topknot adorned with a flower ornament and curling locks framing the forehead. The chest and neck carry multiple strands of bead necklaces, and the lower body is draped in a textured dhoti with ornamental relief at the waist. Super fine brass casting is what makes the fine bead-strand necklaces, the ornamental banding on the pot, and the individually rendered facial features hold their sharpness within a figure of this small scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBal Krishna — Krishna as a child — is among the most widely venerated forms in Vaishnava tradition. The butter-stealing episode is not merely a charming narrative; in Bhakti philosophy it carries deep theological meaning, representing the deity's willingness to be bound by love, accessible to the devotee in his most human, playful form. This posture and attribute are among the most recognizable and beloved in all of Indian devotional iconography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrass, an alloy of copper and zinc, has been central to Indian devotional metalwork for centuries. It holds fine cast detail with fidelity, carries a warm tonal depth that develops with time, and is structurally durable — qualities that make it suited for both active ritual use and long-term display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis piece carries a polished finish, visible in the warm bright gold tone across the raised surfaces of the face, crown, necklaces, butter pot, and base rim, with darkened recesses in the ornamental channels and draped fabric folds that give the composition its definition and depth. 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 home puja room, a personal altar, gifting on occasions such as Janmashtami or family celebrations, or as a collector's piece in classical Indian devotional sculpture.\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":44058226032675,"sku":"CS-PART1-OCT-0090","price":1799.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/0448\/0547\/files\/DZ6A0090.webp?v=1792220621","url":"https:\/\/cosmicstudio.in\/products\/3-sitting-butter-krishana-super-fine-brass-polished-finish","provider":"Cosmic Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
