Cast brass statuette of Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of abundance and wealth. Such figurines of the goddess holding shallow basins are called Deepams and these basins are used to be filled with oil and through the means of a wick to be used as lamps. Deepams are lit for all religious festivals and pujas. Such statuettes when in pair are typically placed at entry ways or are flanking both sides of a home altar. – (MS.496)
