A symbol of momentum, protection, and inner strength, Astra Steed captures the timeless spirit of motion through the soulful language of Bastar Dokra art. Cast by skilled artisans using age-old techniques, this sleek horse rises with a poised stride—its elongated form, unicorn-inspired crest, and ornate saddle patterns echo stories of guardianship and courage passed down through generations.
The hand-finished surface reveals a beautiful interplay of tones and textures, highlighting rich details and hand-worked patterns that glow softly in natural light. Each curve, each motif, carries the quiet rhythm of artisan hands—transforming metal into a mindful presence for contemporary homes.

Dust with a dry, soft cloth. For a deeper clean use tamarind paste or lemon and salt, then rinse and dry at once. Brass darkens into a patina with age — many collectors prefer it. Avoid chemical polishes on the coil detail.
Each casting needs its own clay mould, broken to release the metal. Coil spacing, surface texture and tone vary piece to piece. That variation is the craft's signature, not a fault.
