Located in Yonkers, NY

An antique Indian early 20th century hand carved architectural temple carving from Gujarat, depicting a smiling woman. Originating from Gujarat, India, this antique early 20th-century hand-carved architectural temple carving is a captivating depiction of a smiling woman. This exquisite sculpture captures the essence of traditional Indian artistry, with the woman carved in a frontal position while her legs are delicately portrayed in profile.
