Indian Iron Tantric Lingam

Camel-brown with a rosy bullseye, like a target for very gentle archers.

This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. Brahmin villages along a short part of the river traditionally gathered lingams from shallow water in the dry season, then shaped and hand-polished them, sometimes for as long as a year. Graceful oval on a black foot in warm tan and olive with a speckled finish. A red-pink oval with concentric rings in olive and grey sits low on the front, and a red patch trims the upper end. It is 9 inches high and 5 in diameter.

A target nobody has ever dared to aim at.
