Varamahalakshmi mukhavada
For the Varamahalakshmi vrata — crowned, painted, and ready for the kalasha.
The face that goes on the kalasha for Varamahalakshmi vrata. The crown is worked all over — floral bands and a central medallion set with a red stone — and the face is finished by hand: kohl-lined eyes, a red tilaka, gold-touched jhumka at the ears and a beaded haara at the throat. It sits on the dressed pot through the puja and goes back in its box for the next year.
