About the Item
This life sized and well carved Raj period Indian bust depicts a female goddess or deity. It is hand carved from a single large piece of stone which is naturally greenish in colour, with small white fragments, which are most likely pieces of fossilised shell.
The head and shoulders bust shows a distinctive female wearing a tunic with an ornate neck and matching headdress. She has a flower mounted behind one ear and is carrying a decorative bowl on her head. The bowl is well hollowed and intended to be a planter for colourful and exotic flowers or plants.
We believe this fine stone sculpture has been used and displayed indoors, but could also be used in a garden setting.

An Indian Raj period carved figure of the Goddess Parvati, circa 1900
Located in Central England, GB
This superb hand carved sandalwood figure is Indian from the Raj period and dates to circa 1900.
It depicts the Hindu goddess Parvati, who represents love, fertility and devotion.
Parvati is beautiful. She is semi-naked and very ornate in her elaborate costume. She is holding her Deity son Ganesha, who is part human with an elephant’s head and is known in Hindu mythology as the remover of obstacles.
This remarkable figure group is carved from solid sandalwood, the very material that Hindu mythology suggests Parvati made her son Ganesha from.
The figure group is exceptionally well carved equal to what could be described in European circles as exhibition quality.
The finely carved figure is raised and mounted onto an elaborate carved and moulded stepped stand made from matching figured sandalwood.
This very fine piece of Hindu art...
