Description
The Bidri Camel Figurine is a beautifully crafted decorative piece made using the traditional Bidri metal technique. Formed from a unique alloy of zinc, copper, and lead, the figurine is engraved with delicate patterns and inlaid with fine silver work. The signature black finish, achieved through a special oxidation process, enhances the brilliance of the silver detailing. Representing grace, strength, and endurance, this camel figurine adds cultural depth and sophistication to any décor setting.
Craftsmanship & Origin
Bidriware originated in the Deccan region and continues to thrive in Karnataka under the skilled hands of master artisans. The process begins with casting the alloy into the desired camel shape. Intricate motifs are then hand-engraved and carefully inlaid with pure silver wires or sheets. The piece undergoes a unique soil-based oxidation process that turns the metal surface deep black while preserving the shine of the silver patterns. Each figurine is individually handcrafted, making every piece unique.
