Kali. Approximately 4" high.
Often referred to as "Maha-Devi", Kali is the great
goddess. She is a wife of Siva and daughter of Himavat (the Himalaya
mountains). As the Shakti or female energy of Siva, she has two
characters - one mild and one fierce. In this form she is encircled
with snakes and holding a head, celebrating the victories over the
Asuras, a general name for enemies of the gods.
