Hand-cast brass Candlestick Set
Odisha, India
c. Early 21st century
Crafted in the traditional Dhokra style, Loha is a stylised brass candle holder in the form of a peacock — a symbol of beauty and renewal in Indian decorative tradition. The surface is intricately detailed with hand-formed coils and geometric etching, created using the ancient lost-wax casting method passed down through generations of tribal artisans.
Cast in solid brass, the piece carries a sense of permanence and presence. Though functional as a candle holder, it holds more power as an object of sculptural character ideal for shelves, mantels, or collected groupings where texture and story are central.
