Hand-Painted Aranmula Wooden Frame Set of 2 – Devi Hands

A raised palm, an open gesture — in Indian temple art, these hasta mudras are a language of their own, each specific position offering blessing, reassurance, or protection without a word spoken. This set of two Aranmula-shaped frames isolates that language entirely, showing only a goddess's bangled hand in two different gestures: one raised, open, against a pink ground scattered with small florets; the other turned downward against a deep blue ground, bangles catching the light.

Cast in an antique-gold finish, both frames borrow their silhouette from the Aranmula Kannadi, Kerala's celebrated metal mirror. The hands themselves are hand-painted with fine attention to the jewellery and the soft shading of the skin, an intimate, detail-focused approach to devotional imagery.

Each frame measures 12 inches in height and 6.75 inches in width, and comes with a hook fitted to the back. Displayed as a pair, they make a subtle, elegant addition to a puja room, hallway, or console wall.

For NRI households, this offers a quieter way to bring devotional imagery into a home abroad — a considered gift for a housewarming or for anyone drawn to detail-focused, jewellery-rich Indian art.
