Care
Care
This piece mixes Brass, Enamel, and Beads.
Moisture: Brass tarnishes with moisture. Keep absolutely dry.
Impact: The Meenakari panel is glass-powder fused to metal. Dropping it on a tile floor can crack the painting.
Storage: Hang them up or store flat in the Gullye dust bag to prevent the dangling leaves from scratching the enamel.

The Story Behind
-
The Messenger.
In Indian miniature painting, the Peacock is the messenger of romance, and the Lotus is the symbol of the divine. Master Artisan Ratan combines them here in a single vertical drop.
The challenge of this piece is the "Canvas." The rectangular panel is barely the size of a stamp. Ratan must use a single-hair brush to paint the pink petals of the lotus against the black enamel background.
One tremor of the hand, and the pink bleeds into the black. Once painted, it is fired in a kiln at 800°C. The result is a painting that will never fade. The bird at the top is the guardian; the painting below is the treasure.
