About this piece
A small brass Lakshmi standing on a lotus pedestal over a square base, in a gold-tone finish with fine carving on the folds of the cloth and a tall crown.
The photos show a close view of the face and one of the lower folds. It is 15 cm tall and weighs 350 g, so it suits a small shrine or a shelf.
How it is used
Lakshmi is the goddess of wealth in Hindu tradition. Many homes keep her image in the shrine, and include it in the Diwali puja.
Looking after it
