Patinated bronze - India - Early 20th century

Interesting bronze sculpture depicting an eight-armed Hindu female deity (associated with the iconography of Durga / Mahalakshmi) standing in a balance pose (Samabhanga). The deity holds with multiple hands the traditional sacred attributes (including the conch Sankh, the disc Chakra, and the Padma lotus flower). The head is adorned with a rich crown (Kiritamakuta) and the body is embellished with traditional jewelry and broad rigid drapes at the hips. The statue rests on an elevated circular base with petal-shaped pierced motifs. Made using the lost-wax technique, the sculpture shows a pleasant dark bronze patina with slight signs of natural oxidation that enhance its vintage/antiquarian appearance. Weight: 1050 grams. Height: 22 cm. Base width: 10 cm.
