Cast in old bronze with a time-softened patina, the piece features Hayagriva and Mahakala in three-sided form atop a skull motif, rising above the triple-bladed phurpa dagger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eIn ritual use, the phurpa symbolizes the cutting through of obstacles, negativity, and illusion. Here, it is reinterpreted as a contemplative object for the home—an anchor for intention as much as an ornament. The multiple faces and skull elements speak to transformation: fear and confusion are acknowledged, then transmuted into clarity and courage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003eThe vertical form and narrow footprint allow this piece to sit beautifully on an altar shelf, console, or niche. Whether placed near incense and candles, or standing alone as a sculptural focal point, it invites quiet reflection on protection, boundary, and inner strength. The weight of the bronze and the hand-finished details give it a presence that feels both ancient and alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"font-semibold text-foreground\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc space-y-0.5 mt-2 mb-5 [\u0026amp;_ul]:my-0 last:mb-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:my-2 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:my-1 [\u0026amp;_ul]:list-[circle] [\u0026amp;_ul_ul]:list-[square]\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eHeight: 35 cm (13.8\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eLength: 6 cm (2.4\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eWidth: 6 cm (2.4\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eWeight: approx. 1.5 kg (including packing materials)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"font-semibold text-foreground\"\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; origin\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"list-disc space-y-0.5 mt-2 mb-5 [\u0026amp;_ul]:my-0 last:mb-0 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;\u0026gt;li]:my-2 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:ml-4 [\u0026amp;_ul\u0026gt;li]:my-1 [\u0026amp;_ul]:list-[circle] [\u0026amp;_ul_ul]:list-[square]\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eMaterial: Old bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eCondition: Good vintage condition with natural patina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"leading-relaxed\"\u003eOrigin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"mt-4 first:mt-0\"\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"font-semibold text-foreground\"\u003ePlacement \u0026amp; care\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDisplay on a stable, level surface away from high-traffic areas to protect the detailing.
