Although Ganesha’s facial deformity might cause him to be shunned by other cultures, the Hindus believe that his is a gift from God and revere him. It was our special privilege to get to know Ganisha and his fellow Nagas. We sat under the shade of a banyan tree at their camp site and took chai with them on many occasions. Those lazy afternoons will long remain as some of our most cherished moments of the Kumbh. Ganesha is a very special holy man of the Naga Indian tribe. Nagas are from an ancient warrior caste of naked spiritual men who live a life primarily unto themselves. The Maha Kumbh Mela festival (the largest religious congregation on earth) is held four times every 12 years and is one of those occasions when the Nagas deign to walk among their fellow Indians. Dressed only is white ash powder and an occasional loin cloth, thousands of Nagas, along with Sadhus, Hari Chrishnas, and Fakirs, dip in the holy waters of the Ganges River along with other devout Hindus. Over the three months of the festival tens of millions of Hindu pilgrims attend the Kumbh . In 2001 the Kumbh in Allahabad attracted 100 million celebrants, equivalent to a third of the population of America!

Artsdirectgallery.com · Artists Statement: Modern Raku Raku-yaki (楽焼) Raku is a 16th-century Japanese art form which evolved from the Zen Buddhist tea ceremony. Sen-no-Rikyu, the greatest tea master, established the concept of wabi-tranquility,austerity,transience-for the tea ceremony. I have strived to maintain the traditional concept of wabi in my Raku work. I became fascinated by the challenge of Raku. Throwing a bowl or vase remains a challenge especially if the work is large. Once the clay is dried, the clay pots are fired between 12-24 hours known as a bisque firing ( 900 °C (1650 °F). The finally firing is an all day affair. After preheating the pieces, I load the Raku kiln. The kiln is slowly brought to a temperature of 800–1000 °C (1472–1832 °) degrees cone 06 temperature range. Experience is the guide here as the work is visually checked for glaze maturity. Wearing protective gear and using tongs is recommended, I then move the work to the reduction chambers which are holes in the …

It’s a wide cuff bracelet of hammered silver colored metal.
I’ve only worn it 3 times then it sat in a drawer. There’s a film of gunky stuff that makes it dull and it doesn’t go away by wiping wit a dry or damp kleenex.
What can I use to clean it with, please? It’s not real silver, just costume jewelry. Thanks.
