L: 9 11/16 W: 6 1/4 & About 3/8 thick Dhokra is one of India's prehistoric art forms. It is a metal casted art that uses the ancient lost-wax casting technique. This art is said to be the first of its kind to use a non ferrous metal like copper & it's alloys-brass (a mix of zinc/copper) or bronz (tin/copper), which don't contain iron. Since earlier times, Dhokra has been predominantly used to make religious figurines, animal statues, lamp caskets, & measuring bowls. Folk art objects such as, men & women in their daily chores, musicians, & dancers are also popular figurines made using this technique. All of our vintage/antique items are sold as is.
