Bronze Oil Lamp Krishna Mandir Temple
€900,00
- This hanging oil lamp was designed for use in a Hindu temple. Its shape closely follows that of the Krishna temple built in 1637 in Patan, Nepal.
The corners are adorned with figures of crouching monkeys, and it features four leaf-shaped trays housing wicks with relief representations of the god Ganesha, accompanied by two guardian lions.
Suspended beneath the temple base are nine leaf-shaped lappet pendants, the temple is suspended by a chain of hollow links, also highly decorative. Dating from the early 20th century. - These lamps come from the estate of art dealer Claude de Marteau, and were probably part of the stock in his store on rue de la Régence in Brussels, which he ran until the early 1970s. We have a very limited number of copies.
