The Historical Significance of Brass Nandi Statues in Indian Temples

From the earliest days of Indian civilization, Nandi, the sacred bull, has occupied a revered place in Shaivite tradition. In ancient temples across India—especially in South India—Nandi is always positioned facing Lord Shiva, symbolizing devotion, discipline, patience, and eternal faith. Stone and metal Nandi statues have been part of temple architecture for over a thousand years. The tradition of crafting brass Nandi statues emerged when Indian artisans mastered metal casting techniques to create durable sacred icons for temples, monasteries, and royal patronage. At Prajjwal International, we continue this centuries-old heritage by manufacturing and exporting handcrafted Brass Nandi Statues, preserving India’s spiritual and artistic legacy for global markets..
