Indian Iron Tantric Lingam
About this piece
Round as a river pebble in outline, dark as midnight, and polished by plenty of attention.
This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. Genuine Banalinga are generally described as forming in the currents of one short stretch of the Narmada River in central India, rather than being carved from stone or cast in bronze. Overall it is a plump oval in deep charcoal with a softly domed top. Two hazy highlights sit high on the face, and fine, pale hairline marks cross the upper left. A thin black disc under the base keeps it upright. It is 8.5 inches high and 4.5 in diameter.
A good silhouette needs very little help.
