The combination of copper and brass gives this piece a rich and timeless quality, symbolizing the harmony of the earthly and the divine.

Origin:

The origins of Lord Krishna are rooted in Hindu mythology, particularly in the Bhagavata Purana and the Mahabharata. Krishna is the eighth avatar of Vishnu, who incarnated to cleanse the world of evil and restore righteousness. Krishna was born in Mathura, where his parents, Devaki and Vasudeva, were imprisoned by Devaki’s brother, the tyrant king Kamsa. A prophecy foretold that Devaki’s eighth child would kill Kamsa, so she killed the first seven children. When Krishna was born, he performed miracles, including breaking the chains that bound his parents and ordering Vasudeva to take him to Gokul. There, Krishna was raised by his adoptive parents, Yashoda and Nanda. Krishna’s early life was filled with miraculous deeds, such as defeating demons sent by Kamsa. His birth marked the beginning of his divine mission to defeat evil, protect the righteous, and guide humanity to spiritual enlightenment.

Symbolism:

• Flute: Divine melody and the call of love.
• Peacock Feather: Beauty, wisdom, and spiritual transformation.
• Blue Skin: Infinite, transcendent, and divine nature.
• Chakra: Cosmic law, order, and the destruction of evil.
• Lotus: Purity, enlightenment, and divine knowledge.
• Butter: Simplicity, joy, and the sweetness of divine love.

These symbols reflect Krishna’s multifaceted nature — as a loving, playful deity, a divine teacher, and a protector of righteousness.
