That makes shading everything: without it, a lingam on a small rakhi is just a bright oval with no sense of volume. The oxidised finish gives it that volume, the dark gathering at the base and around the yoni-pindika while the crown of the lingam stays light, so it reads as a rounded form rising from its base rather than a flat shape. It is the same reason a stone lingam in a temple is dark and worn rather than polished bright — the age and the shadow are the point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAbout Jija Designer Jewellery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJija Designer Jewellery has been handcrafting traditional Maharashtrian jewellery since 2010 from Satara, Maharashtra.
