Gajalakshmi or the form of Goddess Lakshmi, who is seen sitting in Padmasana pose and flanked my mighty elephants symbolizes strength and wisdom.

This grand mural is handpainted in Tanjore style. She is depicted in all her splendor with a smiling face and in abhaya mudra or the blessing hand pose.

Gold accents have been used liberally and highlight the golden aura and bowl of gold coins among other things.

Goddess Lakshmi is associated with prosperity and beauty and gold jewelry motifs are painted along the border in key areas.

A large mural of the Goddess' face is prominent in the chest area.

The saree is made of 100% pure silk, that is light, easy to drape and just the right thickness for the paint to absorb well without being overly stiff.

It is ready to wear with falls and pico done. Pretty tassels add charm. A plain blouse fabric is included.

Note: The work on the saree is 100% handmade and there may be slight inconsistencies in the painting such as smudges and specks of paint.
