Hand worked from a single block and finished in soft, unexpected colours, this little soul wears strings of bright glass beads and an expression of serene, slightly amused calm. The patina tells of years well lived, with only a few discreet flecks of lost paint to prove the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFolk devotional carvings like this were made across India as personal shrine companions and decorative tokens of faith. The colouring here is far from everyday, which is precisely the charm.
