🔱 Unity of Divine Power: Shiva-Durga Dhokra Idol on Hand Pedestal
Handcrafted Dhokra Brass Sculpture: Ardhanarishvara (Shiva & Shakti) on a Symbol of Divine Blessing
Celebrate the ultimate union of cosmic masculine and feminine energy (Purusha and Prakriti) with this exceptional Shiva and Durga Dhokra Idol. This piece features the busts of Lord Shiva (the consciousness) and Goddess Durga/Parvati (the energy/Shakti) emerging together, symbolizing their indivisible bond.
The striking element of this sculpture is the unique pedestal: a large, open, stylized hand rising from a circular, ornate base, holding the divine couple. This is a beautiful metaphor for the divine blessing and protection extended by the Deities.
Crafted using the ancient Dhokra (Lost-Wax) casting technique, the idol boasts the signature rustic finish and intricate detailing that characterizes this 4,000-year-old art form. The antique brass patina and the visible texture of the hand-drawn wax threads add a timeless, collectible value.
