This bronze sculpture from Nepal portrays a finely adorned female figure holding two scallop-shaped oil lamps, embodying both ritual function and spiritual grace. Standing on a stepped pedestal, the figure is depicted in traditional attire with elaborate jewelry, including a prominent necklace and head ornamentation, signifying reverence and ceremonial importance. The twin lamps held in each hand suggest the figure’s role as a bearer of light—symbolic of purity, enlightenment, and divine presence. Such objects were commonly used in temple rituals, household altars, and ceremonial offerings, where light played a central role in spiritual practice. With its serene expression and detailed craftsmanship, the piece reflects Nepalese artistic traditions rooted in devotion, symbolism, and the seamless blending of the sacred and the ornamental.
