Tibetan Art Plated with Gold Of 6 Armed Mahakala
We are the artist of the Kathmandu valley who has finely handmade the Six Armed Mahakala statue in the classic Himalayan Art style. The figurine was molded using copper, then coated with real genuine 24K gold. We have further highlighted the deity's facial expression with acrylic paintings. We have worked tirelessly for months to carve this figurine, using intricate patterns that accurately represent the Buddhist deity's iconography. The Mahakala is shown as having three eyes reflecting the past, present, and future while clearly understanding time. The deity's crown comprises five human skulls, representing one of the deadly delusions: wrath, want, ignorance, envy, or pride. We also have placed the flames of the halo artistically behind the figurine.
This statue has accurate traditional iconography and fine details and will be a perfect gift to a devotee like you from Nepal.

Mahakala is the guardian god of Mahayana Buddhism and all Tibetan Buddhist schools. He represents various ways, each with its features and characteristics. In some circumstances, he is seen as the emanation of distinct beings, such as Avalokitesvara or Chakrasamvara. The five kleshas (adverse ailments) are transmuted into the five pearls of wisdom, and Mahakala is generally typically represented with a crown of five skulls.
