This hand made, bronze sculpture is a one-of-a-kind statue, hand cast by the artists of south India.

Special Features:  Shiva is standing with four arms in a position much like the Vinadhara pose.  His front two hands are free and in his other two hands he holds an axe as well as a deer.  The deer shows how all animals see Shiva as their lord and revere him.  What is unusual about this piece is that Shiva is standing on the hands of  a dwarf.  The mustached dwarf is seated in an upright position holding a knife.  Usually any dwarf that Shiva stands on is laying down, collapsed under the pressure of Shiva's great weight.  Another unusual feature is that Shiva is wearing only one clog on his right foot.  The left foot that he uses to squash the dwarf is uncovered. 

Care:  The piece can be used both indoors and outdoors.  Dust the piece regularly.  If you would like the piece to shine use a cotton cloth with some coconut oil or other natural oil to wipe down the statue.
