This colored marble statue is a one of a kind sculpture, hand carved by the artists of south India.  Lotus Sculpture is proud to be the only gallery offering statues in sange-rathek stone.

Special Features:  Shiva is dancing holding a trident, lotus flower, and a cobra.  He is dancing on a dwarf with another cobra wrapping around his foot, you can see the cobra's head just under Shiva's left leg which is raised.  Overhead Mahakala is looming with beautiful looping tendrils surrounding the head.  The carving is exquisite! 

The base is upheld by one of Shiva's dwarf Gana with a large belly and arms raised supporting Shiva.  Ganas are attendants of Shiva and live in Kailasa. Ganesha was chosen as their leader by Shiva, hence Ganesh's title "lord of the ganas".

The unique shape of the sculpture is impressive.  The base starts from such a small point and funnels upwards in a "V" shape almost like a bouquet of flowers and equally as beautiful!  The stone is extremely glossy more so than a normal piece of salem stone.  The overall sculpture is inspiring.

Care:  The piece is for indoor use only.  Dust the piece as needed using a cotton piece of cloth.  You can really make the surface and color of the statue shine if you use a cloth to buff the surface.
