Weird statue

[Silver Searcher]

I found this weird statue on boxing day about five years ago for some time it has been lost to me but just recently I stumbled across it during a clean out, I have tried to research the statue without any luck, it stands three inches high on a square base and is quite heavy and it looks to be made of bronze, as you can tell from the pictures it is two figures one holding a smaller one on the knee with crude features, there are two piercing where it might have been worn around the neck and that's about all I can tell you about it your views would be appreciated especially PBK.

I would guess an Indian God not sure which one, but a good channel for research.

Not of British origin for sure.

What are your thoughts on the 2 holes, do they go deep, all the way throw?

How's the Southern trip idea going?

Right, so its probably a protective/good luck God, however the small childlike figure on the knee would make my think fertility. When I get time & I'm going out soon for a hunt, I will try & see. But I'm sure someone on here will reconise it.

Well done PBK, my guessing wasn't far off again.

Tyre,

Forgot to say, its a really nice artefact & I'm sure your please to get such an usual object. I think its is at least 100 years old by the look of it.
