Handcrafted Dokra Bullock Cart with Driver – Timeless Brass Sculpture
Imagine a quiet Indian village road, the rhythmic clatter of bullocks pulling a wooden cart, and a humble driver guiding the journey. That serene tableau is now captured in exquisite brass form, ready to become the focal point of your living space.
Product Overview
Crafted by master artisans of the Dokra tradition, this sculpture is created using the ancient lost‑wax metal‑casting technique that dates back over a millennium. Each piece begins as a detailed wax model, encased in a clay mould, and then poured with a brass‑based alloy. Once the metal solidifies, the mould is broken, revealing a sculpture that retains the hand‑carved nuances of the original model. Finished in an antique gold/brass hue, the bullock cart measures 7.5 × 5.5 × 4.5 cm and weighs approximately 700 g – an ideal size for tabletops, shelves, or display cabinets.
