These stone carvings are found by forest paths and serve as an opportunity for travellers to petition for safety while crossing through the dense woodland. Offerings of small favored objects, morsels of indulgent food or small unusual rocks is an effective way to earn protection of this particular nature deity. Many travellers also leave small handmade effigies near these statues for others to take with them for continued luck. The custom is to replace a taken effigy with one's own carving on the next excursion through the area. There are reports of dishonest effigy "collectors" finding themselves stricken with a curse of gastrointestinal distress until the fair share is returned to the stone idol...

This is for a blank cold cast iron cast of the 3.5" effigy figure ONLY! The second picture shows what the figure will look like out of the box. Polishing with steel wool will bring out the metal effect.
