The deity standing in a gently sway, holding a lotus bud in her raised hand and a flask in the other, wearing loose fitting robes falling in even rounded folds tied at the waist and a necklace comming to a point at her chest below a longer beaded necklace knotted at her waist the ends following the contours of her hem, her serene face with eyes half-closed in contemplation framed by her hair combed up into a top bun--37in. (97cm.) high
