Carved from Kumbla wood (Gmelina arborea), a timber native to the forests of Kerala and central to South Indian temple woodcarving, the artwork features fine graining that allows for precise, fluid details in sacred iconographic forms.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeated upon a blooming lotus pedestal in lalitasana, Goddess Lakshmi is represented with four arms. Her upper two hands hold full lotus blossoms, symbolizing spiritual purity and growth. Her lower right hand is raised in abhaya mudra, bestowing protection and peace, while her lower left hand extends downward in varada mudra, pouring forth a stream of gold coins that cascade toward the base to represent auspiciousness and abundance. Her calm countenance features soft almond-shaped eyes, arched eyebrows, and a delicate tilak mark. She is adorned with a tall, decorative crown (kiritamukuta), layered necklaces, ear ornaments, armlets, bangles, a waist girdle, and a pleated saree with delicate fabric folds, all framed by an ornamental arch (prabhavali) atop a dark octagonal base.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Diya Handicrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67544507777238,"sku":null,"price":13000.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1194\/1498\/files\/1._Four-armed_Goddess_Laxmi_in_Wood_Carving_by_Diya_Handicrafts.png?v=1791353867","url":"https:\/\/www.memeraki.com\/products\/four-armed-goddess-laxmi-in-wood-carving-by-diya-handicrafts","provider":"Memeraki Retail and Tech Pvt Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
