In Hindu mythology, the gods Brahma, Shiva, and Vishnu are known as the Trinity. The three gods are associated with three important concepts of the universe: Brahma is the creator of the universe; Shiva is the destroyer (of evil and ignorance); and Vishnu is the preserver of life. Shiva is considered the master of dance and his dance is called the cosmic dance.
This figurine of Lord Shiva in dancing pose is elegantly carved using the finest, seasoned shivaniwood from the forest of Karnataka by the expert & skilled Artisans.
The actual image of Shiva is also distinct from other deities: his hair piled high on the top of his head, with a crescent moon tucked into it and the river Ganges tumbling from his hairs. Around his neck is a coiled serpent representing Kundalini or the spiritual energy within life. He holds a trident in his hand in which is bound the 'damroo' (small leather drum). He wears the 'Rudraksha' beads and his whole body is smeared with ash.
The beauty and elegance of the figurine lies in the fine details & the intricate filigree work on the rich golden grains of the wood.
The Art piece is mounted on a solid pedestal of pure rosewood to give perfect contrast and an ecstatic look.
Maintenance Tips:
Suggestible for Indoor Use. For timely maintenance, slightly dust the piece with soft dry cloth, use a mild wood polish on a swab of cotton wool to give glittering look.
