The beautiful brass work is given a detail touch and is cast on the traditional dhokra technique. The work shows the tribal people in full spirit and joy. They are sitting on the branches of the tree and reveal a deep sense of self satisfaction and accomplishment. This lovely work is crafted with the ancient dhokra technique, a laborious lost wax process practiced in the region. First, a model is sculpted of clay and dried in the sun; it is then covered with beeswax and more clay, forming a mold. The piece is cast, cleaned and again dried in the sun. Finally, it is heated in the ground for five days and polished.
