Antiquated finish and subtle colors on the unpolished wood give this wooden goddess Lakshmi statue a vintage aesthetic, which appears to be a part of an ancient temple complex. The Chaturbhuja or four-armed Lakshmi is one of the oldest depictions of the goddess, with a youthful, feminine form and lotus motif that symbolize fertility, fecundity, and femininity- virtues that from the earliest times are considered sacred in Indian culture.

A union of folk iconography, especially on the face of Lakshmi which is modeled after the regional features of women, and the concepts of ancient Hindu texts, this wooden artwork emanates the beauty of Indian aesthetics.
