This miniature brass temple shrine exemplifies the ornate craftsmanship of Gujarat, where devotional architecture was translated into portable altar forms. The scalloped archway is framed by pierced latticework and topped with a domed finial bearing floral punchwork and stylized motifs. The back panel features engraved vegetal patterns and a central peacock—a symbol of auspiciousness—while the flanged base displays symmetrical cutouts and rests on four clawed feet. Intended for domestic worship, this shrine reflects the convergence of architectural symbolism and artisanal precision in Western Indian metalwork.
