Add a touch of spiritual elegance and tribal heritage to your space with this Dhokra Art Brass Nandi – 12 cm, handcrafted in pure brass with a beautiful antique finish. This unique showpiece depicts Nandi, the divine bull, seated gracefully in a peaceful pose — a symbol of devotion, strength, and loyalty in Hindu tradition.
In Hindu mythology, Nandi is the sacred companion and gatekeeper of Lord Shiva, often seen seated patiently in front of his temple. Placing a Nandi idol at your home or temple is believed to bring positivity, stability, and focus. This handcrafted brass Nandi is created using the ancient Dhokra technique, a 4000-year-old tribal metal art known for its raw and rustic appeal.
Made from pure solid brass, this item showcases intricate carvings and natural tribal patterns — no two pieces are ever the same, making it truly one-of-a-kind. With its antique brown finish, it brings an authentic vintage charm to any space, whether spiritual or decorative.
The idol measures 7 cm in width, 12 cm in height, and 19 cm in length, weighing 1000 grams, making it ideal for temple shelves, table tops, home altars, or even work desks.

🌿 About Dhokra Art:
Dhokra (also spelled Dokra) is one of the oldest known forms of metal casting, with roots tracing back over 4,000 years. Practiced in tribal regions such as Bastar (Chhattisgarh), Odisha, West Bengal, and Jharkhand, this art form uses the lost wax casting method. Unlike mass-produced items, no molds or factories are used—each item is uniquely handmade using natural materials and age-old techniques passed down through generations.
By purchasing Dhokra items, you're directly supporting rural artisans, preserving heritage, and owning a piece of history made with skill and soul.
