    Quality art and service - 5.25.2013

    We have purchased many hindu bronze sculptures and one wood carving panel from Lotus Sculpture over the last few years. We are extremely pleased with the quality and beauty of these objects. Kyle and his team have been wonderful. They have helped us choose statues that continue to captivate us years later.

    Kyle, the helper - 5.17.2013

    I order two statues (one of Lord Ganesha and an other of Lord Buddah). Unfortunatly, the Lord Ganesah's one had been sold before my order. But, Kyle proposed me many other solution to help me getting what I wanted. So I would like to thank him for everthing he did for me. I received both of them yesterday. I was so happy, especially when I saw how the statue were perfectly packed. They travelled few thousand miles and hd no trouble. Once again, thank you. Thomas

    Loved the experience - 5.6.2013

    It is rare to have a web purchase feel like such a personal experience. The way the products are described and the prompt attention from the company was really great. I had a personal email from the owner within a few minutes of ordering to clarify something on my information. The statue arrived right on time and is better than I expected. Thanks

    Description

    Manasa (pronounced "Manesha") is a Goddess of snakes & agriculture, often worshiped in Bengal. She is the daughter of the sage Kasyapa and brother of the naga king Vasuki. Her son's name is Astik, who shown on the Goddess's lap in the sculpture. Manasa's worship is believed to offer protection from snakebite; while anyone who offends her may be punished by this means.  Courtesy of Mr. Arlen O'Laochdha

    Manesha demands respect.  She is majestically seated on the top of the pyramid base that is crowned by a 7 headed cobra.  She looks out hypnotizing anyone who looks at her with her deep, penetrating stare.  On her lap sits a small child.  She holds some type of root or stem with leaves.
