Naga Raksha Bust
This is a finely detailed bust sculpture of a "Naga Raksha" (Cobra Demon). The central figure features a fierce, traditional mask design characterized by prominent bulging eyes, exposed fangs, and a protruding tongue. It is crowned by a magnificent, symmetrical headdress composed of multiple hooded cobras with intricately textured scales fanning outward. The shoulders and chest are adorned with heavily patterned garments featuring geometric lines and crisscross detailing, resting on a decorative rectangular pedestal. The piece exhibits a striking antique bronze-style finish, featuring a warm golden-brown base tone, deep espresso-brown patina settled into the recessed scales and carved lines, and polished gold highlights that emphasize the fierce facial features and serpentine hoods.
