🌟 About The Product👉
This radiant Panchaloha sculpture from Nikur Essence presents Lord Karttikeya (Skanda) in his divine and fearsome six-headed (Shanmukha) form, embodying the virtues of courage, wisdom, purity, and divine leadership. Cast using the traditional lost-wax method, the sculpture reflects the deepest layers of Shaiva mythology while honoring the intricate craftsmanship of South Indian bronze work.
As per ancient lore, Karttikeya is born of the combined energies of Shiva and Parvati, destined to vanquish powerful demonic forces. The legend of his birth speaks of the Krittikas, six celestial mothers (represented by the Pleiades star cluster), who nurture the divine child. To honor their love and devotion, Skanda manifests with six faces—each one turned toward a mother—allowing him to nurse from and recognize every one of them simultaneously.
In this stunning idol, Karttikeya stands poised and majestic, adorned with battle-ready ornaments, holding divine weapons, each of his six faces radiating calm vigilance and divine strength. The peacock mount—his vahana (vehicle)—symbolizes the subjugation of ego and desire, while the powerful symmetry of his form radiates spiritual balance and cosmic protection.
