9" Shiva as Bhairava Protected by Seven Hooded Serpent In Brass | Handmade | Made In India

9" Shiva as Bhairava Protected by Seven Hooded Serpent In Brass | Handmade | Made In India is a handcrafted brass statue in the spiritual idol category, illustrating the fierce form of Shiva as Bhairava embraced by a seven hooded serpent.

The sculpture is cast in brass and finished with a warm antique patina that enhances the depth of its details. Each line of Bhairava’s expression, the serpents’ scales, and the jewelry is defined by patient hand finishing, yielding a tactile, artisanal presence rather than machine polish. This piece reflects Exotic India Art’s commitment to authentic Indian metalwork.

Traditional iconography informs the design, with Bhairava as a protective, ascetic form of Shiva and the seven hooded serpent symbolizing lineage and cosmic guardianship. The sculpture preserves a classical balance of solidity and movement, making it suitable for study and appreciation as an art object.
