Radha Krishna Thali - 02

A very rare brass platter or thali from North India, this exquisite piece bordered with scalloped lotus petal niches, features repousse and engraving work. In the centre is Lord Krishna playing his flute, and next to him is Radha. They are surrounded by stylized foliate designs. This platter would have been used in puja or worship rituals.
Krishna is the god of compassion, tenderness and love, and is one of the most popular and widely revered among Indian divinities. Radha is Krishna’s most prominent wife, and her selfless love of Krishna is admired by devotees.
