Care
Copper statues from Nepali do not need much maintenance. The best way to maintain the statue is to simply dust the piece periodically to keep any dirt from accumulating. They are meant solely for indoor use.
If you are really interested in making the statue shine you can use some coconut oil or other natural oil and a soft cotton rag to wipe down the metal portions of the piece. You can use a soft toothbrush as well to get into the small crevices of the statue. Please pay special attention to not use any oil on any painted surface of the sculpture, such as the face. This will damage the paint and possibly recolor the painted area. Simply use a cotton cloth to dust the face if the face requires attention. Make sure the surface that touches the face does not have any oil present on it. If there are stones on the sculpture use caution while going over the stones as they can become dislodged while handling the sculpture.
