Handcrafted Dhokra Reindeer (Set Of 2)
The exquisitely crafted Dhokra Reindeer with detailed work evokes sensibilities of the ancient Dhokra metal casting technique.
The ancient art form of Dhokra is believed to have its roots extending over 4000 years ago, with its origins dating back to the Harrapan Civilization. For millennia, the skilled artisans of the Dhokra Damar tribes, scattered across central India, have honed their craft using the intricate wax metal casting technique. Employing a special alloy comprised of Brass, Nickel, and Zinc, known as Dhokra metal, they create exquisite pieces of art characterized by their timeless antique appearance.
Dhokra artifacts are globally renowned for their simplicity and folk motifs. The deer symbolizes loyalty, strength, and power making it a meaningful gift. Please note, handmade products may have slight irregularities enhancing their uniqueness.
Care: Over time, brass develops a charming antique appearance due to tarnishing. To preserve its shine, it is essential to clean each Dhokra artifact regularly with a soft, dry cloth and store them away from moisture and abrasive substances
