'Saraswati' Goddess Sculpture in Red Stone

Provenance

This hand-carved red stone sculpture beautifully captures Goddess Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of wisdom, music, and the arts. Holding the veena, she symbolizes the flow of knowledge, creativity, and artistic expression.

Legend tells that Saraswati first bestowed the gift of Sanskrit and the power of speech to the world. She is said to have emerged from the mouth of Brahma, inspiring humans to communicate, create, and learn. Those who seek wisdom, creativity, or mastery of the arts often call upon her guidance, making her an enduring symbol of learning and enlightenment.

The sculpture’s serene expression, intricate adornments, and delicate detailing of the veena and garments reflect both her divine grace and the artist’s skill in transforming red stone into a work of devotion. The natural hue of the stone enhances her presence, turning any space into a sanctuary for contemplation, learning, and inspiration.

More than a decorative object, this piece embodies the eternal connection between knowledge, art, and spirituality, making it a treasured addition to any home or sacred space.
