Since time immemorial, hand gestures have been a language in their own right. Their expressiveness and symbolism have made them a method of communication. On this occasion, our artists have focused on the language of mudras, gestures that arrived to yoga and meditation from Hinduism or Buddhism.
Features:
- For the former, there is a total of 24 mudras, one for each hour of the day, with each one having its own different benefits.
- For the latter, they are gestures that predispose the body for meditation and help them to concentrate.
- Protection Mudra is inspired by these age-old gestures and is depicted as a raised hand with the palm facing outward. In this particular version, the hand is decorated with minutely etched plant motifs intertwined with the fingers, and with a porcelain flower on the thumb, as if it were a part of the pattern that had come to life.
- Various shades of golden luster were used in the decoration, sometimes with a matte finish, other times glazed.
- Meanwhile, the flower, handmade petal by petal, is in a tone somewhere between yellow, pink and a subtle golden sparkle.
- Dimensions: 5-1/2" W x 16-1/2" H x 8-2/3" D
