This exquisite piece, ideal for a devoted Lakshmi follower, features nine panels arranged in uniform rows and columns. Each of the eight panels depicts a distinct form of Ashtalakshmi seated on deep pink lotus thrones, while the central panel shows Lakshmi standing with Lord Vishnu on a flattened lotus.
