    Description

    From my treasure trove of eclectica, I am offering this artifact from the mid 1800s India. It is solid brass, nearly 1 1/0 pounds and 7-1/2 inches long. It is said to be a Shiva Priests Finial for a staff when Nandi the Sacred Bull. All three original bells are intact. Visualize a Shiva Priest carrying a long staff with this affixed to the top. Rattling this to sound the bells must have been a sight. This was all I could understand from a cryptic conversation from the Indian I bought it from about 20 years ago.
