Ardeshir Dadysett pyaav has taps placed on multiple sides within an ornate niche. Stylistic elements comprise the multifoil arch, fluted pilasters, and floral borders. The wash basin is shaped like a blooming lotus flower.
Edward VII (1841–1910) was the King of the United Kingdom and Emperor of India, from 1901 until his death in 1910. His equestrian statue earlier stood at Kala Ghoda, which got named after the black (kala) horse (ghoda). In August 1965, the statue was dismounted from its plinth and shifted to Jijamata Udyan. The plinth is displayed at the Bhau Daji Lad Museum.
The equestrian statue of King Edward VII was sculpted by Sir Joseph Edgar Boehm (1834-90). It was donated to the city by industrialist and philanthropist Albert David Sassoon (1818-96) who commissioned it to mark Edward's visit to India in 1875-76 when he was the Prince of Wales. Edward succeeded Queen Victoria as the English monarch in 1901.
Scholars believe that Ardeshir Dadysett had commissioned two pyaavs in 1912, one placed at the Dadysett Atash Behram at Marine Lines and another at Dadysett Wadi in Walkeshwar, as corroborated by the information gathered from contemporary newspaper Parsee Prakash. At some later stage, as they fell out of use, the pyaavs were relocated to Jijamata Udyan, where they stand now.
