Embossing Method
 
  • Printer-friendly version

In Shankarapura, embossing is done completely in different methods. Initially, the detailing work of the product, its size and shape of the idol is made using wood. Then the thin metal sheet is placed on the surface of the wooden model and then it is gently beaten to take the shape and detailing of the wood. Different parts of the product are done with the same technique and then the parts are fixed together. In case of Mantapa-Chariot, Legs and Upper part are made separately and fixed. The product is polished for a longer shine and luster.

Also, there is another method of embossing, wherein the detailed drawing of the product is done first on paper. Then it is pasted on a sheet of metal and then finally the sheet is put on a surface that is smeared with lacquer or wax. And then the embossing work is started with different types of chiselling and hammering tools, very gently, so that the required embossing can be achieved, but the sheet remains intact without any cuts and holes.
