Indian artisans knew the art of metalworking since 3000 B.C. The beautiful figurine of Lord Buddha indicates the high level of workmanship attained by ancient craftsmen using Brass. Grab this amazing piece of art :indoroots/Product-Details.aspx?product=432 Sculptures are generally made with the lost wax process. This process begins with creation of a wax model of the sculpture or any item. This model is then covered with clay and holes are made into the clay. Finally molten metal is poured through the hole at the top, which causes the wax to melt. The cavity created within is automatically replaced by the hot metal. The metal is allowed to cool and the final product is freed from clay and polished.Scholars tell us of the age when iron was not known and copper and its alloys were used for making metal tools and objects of daily use. A small part of that age is still with us but mostly in objects of art.
