Terracotta wonders


Terracotta horses and Ganesha, procured on our drive last Sunday, adorn our parlour now. The seller called it a computer Ganesha. I love the half man-half elephant Hindu god, just as my brother does - he has a varied collection of Ganeshas back home.

I also have a Nataraja (the dancing Shiva) and Sivakami (his wife Parvati in a dance pose) in some black metal.

Lovely collection! I also adorn my puja room with an Infant Jesus metallic miniature among my hindu Gods/Goddessess.
