Sri Lakshmi, the Hindu deity who bestows the boons of abundance and auspiciousness is popularly known as “Kamala” and “Padma”, both the names used to denote the lotus flower.
Goddess Lakshmi’s association with the freshly blossomed lotus flower is as archaic as her first descriptions in the Hindu textual tradition, where she is mentioned to have emerged from the Kshirasagara, the primordial ocean, seated on a red lotus.
Besides the legends of her origin, the lotus blossom is connected with Devi Lakshmi as a worldly object to describe her otherworldly beauty.
Drawing from the imagery of goddess Lakshmi as the “lady of lotus”, this brass Lakshmi statue showcases the splendor of the divine female energy of Vishnu.
The brass Lakshmi icon is placed on a circular platform shaped like an upturned lotus. The goddess wears a long and imposing Kiritamukuta crown, worn by the group of deities associated with Sri Vishnu. “Makara”- the mythical creature who symbolizes royalty and celestial beauty is used in the ornaments of this brass goddess Lakshmi, noticeable in her long earrings, “Makaraakrita-kundala” (aakrita- shaped like, Kundala-earrings) and her ornate girdle.
Necklaces, armbands, belly belt and anklets are sculpted strategically to draw attention to the flawless allure of the form of this brass icon of Devi Lakshmi. The goddess is two-armed and holds a yet-to-bloom lotus in her left hand, while her right hand dangles on her side.
Tasteful polishing of brass by the maker has endowed this Maa Lakshmi icon with a mystical glow which will be enhanced under the light of a ritual lamp. With a tranquil smile on her exceptionally beautiful face, the goddess of wealth in your home will become the source of spiritual and material achievements.
