Tribal Metal Craft Peacock Pendant – Traditional Dhokra Art with Adjustable Black Dori
A Symbol of Grace and Eternal Art
Immune to the passing of time, this handcrafted Dhokra Peacock Pendant is a celebration of nature and ancient skill. Using the legendary lost-wax casting technique, tribal artisans breathe life into molten brass to create this "Mayur" (peacock) motif—a bird that represents beauty, joy, and spiritual awakening in Indian heritage. Each pendant is born from a unique clay mold that is broken after casting, making your piece a one-of-a-kind treasure.
The Artistry: The "Mayur" Motif
The peacock is depicted with its signature elegance, featuring a textured body created through delicate hand-applied wax threads. The fan-like tail and the graceful curve of the neck showcase the "coiled wire" aesthetic that is the hallmark of authentic Dhokra art. Suspended from a deep black hand-woven thread, the antique golden hues of the metal truly stand out.
