• Attributes of Kalachakra:
  Each element and tool held by the deity offers specific solutions to transcend the boundaries of ordinary perception.
  • Purpose: The sum of Kalachakra’s attributes leads practitioners to attain pure consciousness, transcending space and time.
  • Symbolism: A guide to spiritual awakening and inner peace.

This profound deity embodies the timeless wisdom of Tibetan Buddhism, inviting reflection and meditation.

Silver Plated and Oxidized Finish

This Kalachakra statue showcases a unique dual-tone finish that combines:

1. Silver Plating: Select areas are silver-plated, creating a radiant, reflective shine that enhances the intricate details.
2. Dark Oxidation: Contrasting oxidized areas provide depth and a classic patina, enriching the statue’s visual appeal.

The interplay between the bright silver and dark oxidized tones gives the piece a timeless and majestic quality.

Crafted Using the Lost-Wax System

The Lost-Wax Process, also known as investment casting, is an ancient and intricate method of metal sculpture creation.

Steps in the Lost-Wax Process:

1. Wax Model Creation: Artisans sculpt a detailed wax model, capturing every intricate feature of the Kalachakra.
2. Ceramic Shell Formation: The wax model is coated with multiple layers of ceramic material to form a durable shell.
3. Wax Removal: The shell is heated, melting and draining the wax, leaving a cavity in its place.
4. Metal Casting: Molten copper is poured into the cavity, forming a precise replica of the wax model.
5. Revealing the Sculpture: Once cooled, the ceramic shell is removed, revealing the final metal sculpture.

This method ensures exceptional precision and durability, preserving the intricate details and spiritual significance of the Kalachakra.
