Indian Plaque Amulet Depicting Kali

She dances on one leg inside a teardrop, arms full of implements.

This plaque amulet depicting Kali is Hindu, from Rajasthan, India, in coin silver. Kali is among the most powerful forms of the Goddess in Hindu belief, usually revered as a fierce protector who destroys evil. The four-armed goddess appears in relief with a weapon raised, one leg bent and her body framed by twisted rope borders. A beaded edge follows the leaf shape of the plaque. A small loop sits at the top and a round drop at the tip. It is 1.75 inches long and 2.5 high.

Ferocity, kept neatly within the lines.
