She raises her right arm to the capital, which is carved as a lotus bud topped with a beaded band and a pierced cross-pattern border, and her left hand holds a looped sash at her waist. She wears a tall tiered crown, tasseled ornaments at the sides of her head, braided hair, layered necklaces, ringed armlets and bangles, and a long pleated garment over draped trousers, with anklets at her feet. She stands on a stepped base carved with lotus leaves and a checkered border. The wood has a warm reddish-brown finish that is darker in the recesses. It suits a shelf, mantel or wall display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarved female figures supporting a capital were a common feature of Indian woodwork, used on doorways, pillars, cabinets and furniture. This piece has a flat, uncarved back with two small mounting holes, which shows it was made to be attached to a larger structure. It is unmarked, and the figure is not identified as a specific deity. It is the mirror-image partner of our listing BA-1578, which raises the opposite arm.
