The Ṣaṭkoṇa (षट्कोण) is an ancient symbol defined by two-interlocking triangles to form a six-pointed star and has been used in many civilisations throughout the ages. The upward pointing triangle represents Shiva (masculine) △, whereas the downward pointing triangle represents Shakti (feminine) ▽. Overlapping they remind us that all these are qualities of one God, neither male nor female but encompassing both ☆.
 
All pieces vary slightly due to the timber grain, each sculpture is unique.
