Young Lord Krishna is seen here defeating the dreaded serpent king, Kalinga (Kalia). 

Kalinga, the poisonous naga had occupied and poisoned the river Yamuna and its surrounding banks causing grave distress to the cowherds and the flora and fauna of Vrindavan. On hearing their plight, young Krishna jumped into the river and overpowered the vile serpent King. The statue depicts Kalinga’s wives with folded hands, entreating with the Lord to spare their husband. Merciful that he was, Krishna spared Kalinga and banished him from the shores of Yamuna forever.

This stunning figurine is a celebration of Good triumphing over evil and is crafted from the finest whitewood by expert craftsmen. The sheer mastery of the sculptor is seen in the fabulous filigree work and the delicate jewellery, which is derived from an ancient Indian temple art form, known to few. It is a glorious representation of classical Indian Handicrafts and is truly a work of art worth possessing. The Krishna handicrafts gallery has, for long been a favourite of wholesale art dealers and exporters and as you browse through antique stores on-line, you will be sure to come across an exotic statue of this popular Hindu deity.

A hot favourite of interior decorators and vaastu designers for offices and homes…..the whitewood Krishna sculpture makes a wonderful home decor accessory; can be used to accentuate the ambience of an office reception area and can even make a great corporate gift.

Care: Keep indoors. Lightly dust the figurine as required. We recommend the use of a mild wood cleaner on a swab of cotton wool.
