Country Group: The Himalayas (Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia and Other)
Antique Nepalese or Indian ritual item which holds a lingham and pot of water or oil. This one is exceptional because the the Nandi, the lotus petals that open into a lotus, and the cobra. Stands 6 1/8 inches tall. I believe the Lingham stone it hold comes from a river in Nepal. Uncommon piece in this configuration. Last photo shows another version of this same ritual item fully set up for use.
