This characterful carved teak Nandi bull from Rajasthan dates to the early 20th century, circa 1940. Representing Nandi, the sacred bull and faithful mount of Lord Shiva, such figures hold enduring spiritual significance in Hindu culture, symbolising devotion, strength, and protection.

Hand-carved from solid teak, this piece has a pleasingly compact form with a gently stylised head and upright stance. The surface retains layers of original painted decoration, with a soft white ground contrasted by black panels and bold red detailing. Over time, the paint has worn and softened, creating a beautifully mottled patina that highlights the age and authenticity of the piece.
