About these pieces

Saraswati is the goddess of learning, music and speech. She is shown seated with the veena across her lap, a book and a mala in her other hands, and her swan beside her. Heights run from about 1.5 inch to 24 inch.

Where she is kept decides the size. Students and teachers keep a 3 to 3.5 inch idol on the study table; the ones here weigh 220 g to 300 g and take very little space. For a home mandir or a music room, around 9 inch is a good presence without crowding a shelf. Schools, institutes and music academies buy the large pieces, which go up to about 28.5 kg and need a proper pedestal.

The veena is the detail to check. Its neck and the fingers on the strings are fine castings, so look for clean, unbroken lines in the photos, and never lift the idol by the veena. Hold it from the base with both hands.

Good to know

Which direction should Saraswati face?
Customs differ. Many families keep her in the east or north-east of the study area, so that the student faces east while studying. Go by your own tradition.
Is there a small size for a study table?
Yes. The 3 and 3.5 inch idols weigh about 220 g and 300 g and are listed for desk use.
Do you have a big brass Saraswati for a school or institute?
Yes, heights go up to about 24 inch and beyond for a few temple pieces. Check the weight on the listing and plan a strong base.
Are these idols silver?
No. All 41 are pure brass. Brass has a warm golden colour and is priced far lower than silver for the same size.
