Brass figurative statue depicting a dancing Dakini...

Refined and dynamic figurative sculpture in solid brass, depicting a dancing Dakini (Vajradakini / Vajrayogini), a tantric spiritual figure of significant importance in Buddhist and Hindu iconography. The figure is captured in the classic and complex ritual dance posture (ardhaparyanka), balanced on a single foot atop a finely worked base with a double lotus motif. In the hands it bears traditional ritual attributes: the bell (ghanta) in the right hand raised, and the ritual skinning knife (kartika) in the left. The sculpture stands out for its excellent rendering of the slender anatomical figure, the details of the jewelry, headdress, and drapery. Made using the lost-wax casting technique with an original hollow base, it features a pleasant golden finish with a light antique patina that enhances its volumes.
