Indian Iron Tantric Lingam

Tall, tidy and coal black, with two soft window reflections doing all the decorating.

This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. In Tantric tradition the body of a lingam is taken to stand for male energy, described as knowledge, while its markings represent female energy, described as wisdom. Rounded out as a tall oval with a slightly flattened crown and gently tapering base. The black surface is even and satin-polished, with two soft vertical highlights near the top. Faint pale scuffs show across the shoulders, and the outline is clean. It is 8 inches high and 4.25 in diameter.

Nothing to say, and says it beautifully.
