Indian Iron Tantric Lingam
About this piece
Dusty salmon and gray blending softly, with a shy dark spot at center.
This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. The article describes Banalinga as chalcedony, a cryptocrystalline quartz with iron oxide deposits, and says scholars link their naturally occurring markings, considered spiritually auspicious, to meteoric iron. Round-shouldered oval with a muted finish. The upper part blushes in red-orange tones and deepens near a darker streak at the crown. A thin red band sits along the right, and a small round brownish mark sits mid-body. It is 13 inches high and 7.5 in diameter.
A quiet glow, and no need to announce it.
