This handcrafted Bidriware peacock figurine turns India’s national bird into a sleek piece of contemporary art. The flowing body and dramatically extended tail are covered with meticulous silver inlay patterns that shimmer against the deep black metal, giving the sculpture a sense of movement and fine detail from every angle.
Artisans in Bidar, Karnataka, create the figurine from a zinc–copper alloy, engrave feather‑like designs and inlay them with pure silver before oxidising the surface with special Bidar soil to achieve the signature black‑and‑silver contrast of Bidriware. Place this peacock on a console, mantel or curated shelf as a striking focal point, or choose it as a sophisticated gift for art lovers who appreciate handcrafted decor with cultural depth.
