A finely cast bronze figure of a goddess, identified as Annapūrṇā or a regional form of Devi, standing gracefully on a double-lotus base. The goddess is depicted in slightly swaying posture, adorned with necklaces, armlets, and a tall headdress. She holds a ritual vessel (kalasha) in her hands, tilted as if pouring – a symbol of nourishment and abundance.

The facial expression conveys serenity and maternal benevolence, consistent with Annapūrṇā’s role as the provider of food and sustenance. The pleated sari is detailed with incised patterns, and traces of ritual use and age patina are visible throughout.

Such bronzes were venerated in household and temple shrines, embodying the divine motherly aspect of the goddess, ensuring prosperity and the fulfillment of daily needs.
