The earliest known mention of Saraswati as a goddess is in the Rigveda. She has remained significant as a goddess from the Vedic Period through modern times of Hindu traditions. Some Hindus celebrate the festival of Vasant Panchami (the fifth day of spring, and also known as Saraswati Puja and Saraswati Jayanti in so many parts of India) in her honour, and mark the day by helping young children learn how to write alphabets on that day. The Goddess is also revered by believers of the Jain religion of west and central India, as well as some Buddhist sects.

These hand carved wooden sculptures are made from a solid Suar wood which is likened to Mahogany.
Suar is a fast-growing and easily replaceable wood and is very popular outside of the tropics because it's crisscrossed, interlocking grain keeps the wood from cracking when moved to drier climates.
The colour of the wood varies greatly between the center and outer edges of the tree. Therefore very interesting multi-coloured sculptures are crafted with this wood.
This item is handcarved a created to a high standard and with great care and attention to detail which in turn produces a beautiful unique piece of art.
