The mastery of the artisan is seen in the deep symbolism and intricate filigree work that is derived from an ancient indian temple art form, known to few. Encircled in an aureole of flames symbolising the manifest Universe, Nataraja performs the dance in which the universe is created, maintained, and resolved.

The sculpture depicts a grand and royal aspect of the otherwise austere Lord Shiva posing in a fluid dance movement on a beautiful Lotus, the seat of divine Learning. Inspired by Goddess Parvati’s beauty, Shiva became the fountainhead of the arts, dance and drama. The consequent marital bliss between Shakti and Shiva ensured harmony between Matter and Spirit and brought stability and peace to the cosmos.

In his hands, he holds an axe and trident (trishul) symbolizing the Lord's power to destroy evil and ignorance, a drum (damaru) symbolizing Creation and Agni or fire, which signifies destruction. One of his hands are held in the Abhaya mudra signifying fearlessness, while the second left hand points towards the raised foot which signifies upliftment and salvation. The Dancing Shiva statue is a focal point of worship of classical Indian dancers of the Bharatanatyam and Kuchipudi schools. The Shiva art gallery has, for long been a favourite of wholesale handicrafts & art dealers and exporters. As you browse through antique stores on-line, you will be sure to stumble across an exotic statue of this revered Hindu god.

A hot favourite of interior decorators and vaastu designers for offices and homes…..the whitewood Shiva sculpture makes a wonderful home décor 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.
