  • majestic, hand-carved black stone sculpture depicting a multi-faced Hindu deity, most likely Lord Shiva in his Panchamukha (five-faced) aspect, representing his various manifestations and cosmic roles. The prominent central face looks directly forward with a serene, meditative expression, eyes gently closed in contemplation, and a distinct vertical 'third eye' clearly carved on its forehead, symbolizing wisdom and inner sight. This central figure wears an elaborate Kirita-Mukuta (conical crown) adorned with intricate traditional patterns and fine detailing, beneath which sculpted waves of hair are visible. An ornate necklace or garland is intricately carved around the deity's neck and upper chest, adding to its regal appearance. Flanking the central figure, two additional faces are visible in profile, one on the left and one on the right, each with similar serene expressions and adorned with their own smaller, yet equally detailed, crowns and headwear. These side faces reinforce the multi-directional and all-encompassing nature of the deity. Above the main crown of the central face, a tall, domed structure rises, possibly representing Shiva's Jatamukuta (matted hair crown) or a symbolic cosmic element, culminating in a small, distinct finial at its apex. The entire sculpture is rendered in a deep, lustrous dark grey or black stone, likely granite or polished marble, showcasing the natural sheen and smooth contours achieved through skilled carving. Subtle variations in light highlight the polished surfaces and the textured details of the deity's features, adornments, and hair. The sculpture stands firmly on a sturdy, rectangular base made of the same dark, rough-hewn stone, which provides a contrasting texture. It is presented against a plain, light grey studio background, which allows the intricate details and dark color of the spiritual artwork to stand out prominently. This detailed artwork embodies traditional Indian craftsmanship and spiritual devotion, making it an ideal visual for an article on Hindu iconography, stone carving techniques, or the multifaceted nature of deities like Shiva. A subtle watermark, "the Stone," appears in the lower left, indicating the sculptor or supplier. Mukhalinga 22" Original price was: ₹59,500.00.Current price is: ₹54,600.00. Inclusive of all taxes
  • captivating studio photograph showcases three distinct, handcrafted stone statues of smiling child monks, each meticulously carved from a dark grey, speckled natural stone, likely granite or a similar durable material. The sculptures are presented against a clean, neutral gradient background that transitions from light grey at the bottom to white at the top, effectively highlighting their forms and intricate details. Each of these charming figures embodies an aura of pure joy and serenity, sharing endearing, open-mouthed laughing expressions that convey a sense of inner peace and profound happiness. The subtle variations in the natural stone's texture and shading enhance the realism and artistry of each piece. On the left, the first child monk statue is depicted sitting comfortably in a cross-legged posture, known as vajrasana, with its hands pressed together in the respectful Anjali Mudra (prayer or Namaste gesture). The intricate folds of its draped monastic robe are clearly visible, adding depth and realism to the figure. Its round face is alight with a cheerful, gentle smile, and its closed eyes suggest a state of blissful contemplation or deep, inner joy. In the center, a standing child monk statue captures a moment of active cheerfulness. Its short, sturdy legs are planted on a small, round stone base, and its hands are gently cupped together near its stomach, as if holding a small offering or simply relaxed. This monk’s face also radiates a broad, infectious laugh, with subtle dimples carved into its cheeks and a slight tilt of the head. The simple, flowing lines of its robe are expertly sculpted, suggesting movement and lightness. To the right, the third child monk is seated with its legs folded and hands resting gracefully in its lap, a common pose for meditation or contemplation. Similar to the others, this statue's expression is one of profound happiness, with a wide, joyful grin stretching across its face. The details of its simple monastic attire are carefully sculpted, showing smooth, rounded forms that contribute to its peaceful and endearing appearance. These exquisite dark grey stone sculptures, each approximately 8-12 inches tall, are perfect examples of skilled craftsmanship in Buddhist art and spiritual decor. They embody the symbolism of a 'happy Buddha' or 'laughing Buddha' in a youthful, innocent form, and would serve as inspiring focal points for a Zen garden, a meditation altar, or as unique, artisanal home decor pieces, bringing a sense of tranquility, joy, and spiritual reflection to any indoor or outdoor space. The "the Stone Studio" logo is subtly visible on each statue, indicating their origin from a specialized stone craft studio.

  • stunning, intricately carved grey stone statue of a four-armed Hindu deity stands prominently against a plain, dark grey background. The central figure, likely a form of Vishnu or Krishna, is depicted standing gracefully in a slightly dynamic pose on a multi-petaled lotus pedestal (padma peetha).

In the deity's upper right hand, a meticulously sculpted chakra (discus) is held, while the upper left hand holds a shankha (conch shell). The lower right hand rests upon a tall, ornate gada (mace or club), and the lower left hand gently holds what appears to be a small lotus bud or another symbolic attribute. The facial features are serene and benevolent, with defined eyes, nose, and lips. The deity is framed by a highly detailed and multi-tiered arched prabhavali (decorative aureole or shrine arch), crafted from the same grey stone. This arch is supported by two sturdy, ornately carved pillars on either side, featuring spiral patterns, floral designs, and possibly mythical creatures at their bases. The archway itself is a cascade of intricate scrollwork, leaf patterns, and small figures, culminating in a central, stylized motif at the very top, possibly a kirtimukha (face of glory) or a celestial bird like Garuda, symbolizing divine protection and cosmic order. Smaller attendant figures or devotional beings are visible carved into the base section on either side of the deity, flanking the pillars. The entire sculpture rests on a robust, multi-layered rectangular stone base that mimics traditional temple architecture. This base itself sits on a reddish-brown platform, possibly of wood or contrasting stone, from which subtle patches of green grass emerge at the very bottom, suggesting a display in a natural setting or a temple compound. The light grey hue of the stone, possibly granite or marble, beautifully highlights the depth and precision of the traditional Indian craftsmanship. This detailed stone sculpture, ideal for articles discussing Hindu iconography, traditional Indian temple art, religious symbolism, or the intricate craft of stone carving, showcases exceptional artisanal skill and cultural heritage. The visible "The Stone Studio" watermark suggests it's a piece produced by a specialized artisan studio, demonstrating modern adherence to ancient sculpting traditions.
