Add a bold and meaningful statement to your decor with this exquisitely handcrafted brass fish figurine, inspired by the ancient Dhokra art form—a time-honored metal casting technique dating back over 4000 years, practiced by tribal communities of Central and Eastern India.
This piece, designed in the shape of a stylized fish, is rich in tribal symbolism and intricate artistry. The head of the fish features a prominent, rounded snout and expressive eyes, giving it a mystical character. Delicate hand-etched spiral motifs cover its body, symbolizing water currents and the continuity of life.
Notable elements include:
-
Raised dorsal fins that add dynamism and a warrior-like spirit to the creature.
-
Detailed tail fins crafted to curve gently upwards, enhancing its sculptural elegance.
-
Textured, scale-like patterning rendered through concentric curls and incised lines, showcasing the artisan’s command over fine detailing.
The entire piece is cast in antique-finished brass, giving it a regal yet earthy appearance. It blends well in both traditional and eclectic spaces—perfect as a standalone showpiece or as part of a curated ethnic décor collection
