This beautifully patinated brass temple horse on wheels is from Jhansi city in Bundelkhand, which is a majority Hindu region in north India well known for its bronzes. It would have been created using the 'lost wax technique', also known as 'cire perdue'. A piece is first sculpted from wax and then coated with clay (usually made from termite hills) which creates the outer mold. Once the clay has dried, it is fired and molten brass is poured in to replace the original wax mold. Once cooled, the clay is broken to reveal a finished piece. This would look perfect on a desk and is heavy enough to use as a paperweight or doorstop.
