The mastery of the sculptor is seen in the deep symbolism and intricate filigree work that is derived from an ancient Indian temple art form, known to few.

Lord Shiva is the Lord of mercy and compassion who protects devotees from evil and enforces Law and order on earth. He is known as the "Giver" who grants boons and awakens wisdom in His worshippers.

The beautiful statue portrays Lord Shiva in the classic stance of repose, on a fully bloomed Lotus, the Divine seat of wisdom. Lord Shiva appears in a meditating but ever-happy posture. His matted hair that holds the flowing Ganges river is adorned with a crescent moon. Being the Master of Yoga, the matted locks convey the idea that the integration of physical, mental and spiritual energies is the true essence of yoga. The crescent moon symbolises the time cycle through which creation evolves. The snake (Vasuki Naga) curled three times around the Lord´s neck represents the past, present and future, but indicates that the Lord Himself transcends Time. In his hands, he holds an elephant god signifying self-mastery and a trishul that destroys negative forces.

The Shiva art gallery has, for long been a favourite of wholesale art & handicraft dealers and exporters and 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 traditional indian dancers, 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 even makes 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.
