Design Inspiration - Shukatunda Mudra (parrot's beak) -   is the eighth hand gesture of the twenty-eight single-hand mudras (asamyukta hastas) as described in the Abhinaya DarpanaAccording to mythology, Shukatunda mudra originated from Parvati who used it in a lovers’ quarrel with Sadashiva -  the highest manifestation of Shiva. “Shukatunda” is used to denote the following: Shukatunda literally means a Parrot’s Beak, A shooting of an arrow, A spear, Remembering one’s Abode, Saying of Mystic things, A violent mood.

About Craft- The Swamimalai bronze icons are made by the artists known as the ‘Sthapathis' of a small village on the banks of River Cauvery - SWAMIMALAI - located seven kms from the Temple Town of Kumbakonam. Swamimalai is famous for South Indian Bronze moorthy making, and the artisans here have been following a tradition that is several centuries old. The Highlight of the moorthy manufacture in Swamimalai is the usage of the ancient method called the Madhuchishtavidhana or lost-wax method (cire perdue) a skill passed on for generations since the Chola period. A science that finds reference in the Rig Veda & Silpa Sasthira, this age-old method spells precision, technique and aesthetics while adhering to the firmly laid down standards and principles.
