Brimming with the light of the morning Sun, and full of vitality and beauty, this wooden statue of goddess Rajarajeshwari (queen of kings) is a masterpiece of traditional wooden artwork.

Wrapped in a blue-hued saree, goddess Rajarajeshwari is four-armed The attributes in her primary hands- Ankush or goad and Paasan or noose are symbols of restrain, as weapons with which the goddess regulates desire and activity in all beings, while the objects in her secondary hands- the lotus flower shaped arrows and the sugarcane which serves as her bow are emblems of Kama (the Lord of desire) and mediums of instilling desire in the heart.
A stunning Kirtimukha aureole adds grandeur to the iconography of the Devi, who sits in “Lalitasana” or beautiful pose, a sitting position named after Lalita (one of the names of Rajarajeshwari).
Adorned with beautiful ornaments that are carved with precision and painted with lovely colors, this wooden statue of Rajarajeshwari is an ode to the “Kameshwari” or the goddess of desire, who sows the seeds of virtuous wishes and is the origin of Kriya (action) which is a prerequisite for Srishti (creation).
