![Shiva sits with his consort on a double lotus pedestal. He has six arms, his right three are in varada mudra [a giving gesture], holds a rosary and an arrow. His left arms cup his consorts left breast and hold a lotus flower and a bow. He sits in royal ease, with one leg pendant. He wears bracelets, armlets, necklaces, earrings, and a sacred thread that stretches form his left shoulder down past his waist. On his head he wears an elaborate jatamukuta, a crown interlaced with his matted locks. Parvati sits upon his knee with one leg tucked under her and the other pendant. She is also adorned with jewelry, but wears a more modest diadem at the front of her head.<br />](/media/W1siZiIsIjIwMjIvMDUvMjUvMnF5ZHF1aXpyaV9kZWZhdWx0LmpwZyJdLFsicCIsInRodW1iIiwiMjQweDIwMCJdXQ?sha=5e9565cd110a2b87 "Shiva sits with his consort on a double lotus pedestal.

![<p>This type of bowl was extensively produced throughout the 12th century. The outer wall is decorated with incised and raised deisgn of a two-tiered lotus petal. The glaze was oxidized, producing yellow-green color, but the application of glaze to the entire foot and the use of quartzite spurs indicate that this was produced as a high-quality item.<br />

It has a wall gently curving from the mouth toward the bottom before angeling in sharply close to the foot. There is a lotus petal on exterior. The color is brown.](/media/W1siZiIsIjIwMjIvMDUvMjUvMTBnN25oa2prcF9kZWZhdWx0LmpwZyJdLFsicCIsInRodW1iIiwiMjQweDIwMCJdXQ?sha=225012457d334d64 "<p>This type of bowl was extensively produced throughout the 12th century.
