AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Shiva Lingam sculpted in natural white agate from Madagascar, characterized by a compact structure with light bands and inclusions in beige, brown and gray tones. The darker central area highlights the typical concentric formation of the agate, originating from progressive silica deposition in cavitary environments.
The oval shape, polished and proportioned, faithfully reproduces the traditional model of the Shiva Lingam, a symbol of Hindu culture associated with primordial energy and the balance between opposites. Made by hand, it maintains harmonious lines and a uniform surface.
Decorative and collectible specimen, appreciated both for its mineralogical characteristics and for its symbolic value.
