The
pot, also known as “Ghata”, “Ghada”, “Matka” and “Matki” in Indian languages,
is an intrinsic part of the numerous tales surrounding the divine persona of
Sri Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Vishnu. During his childhood, Krishna
stole butter stored by his mother in earthen pots, got reprimanded, and pleased
the heart of Maa Yashoda through his childish mischief.
As a young cowherd, Krishna’s Lilas is given the deep red shade of romance by the presence of the milk maidens, whose pots filled with milk and butter he playfully smashed. Intricately carved with two of the most popular Lilas of Krishna, this marble pot, a beautiful addition to your home décor, is a simple reminder of the ambrosia of the presence of Krishna as experienced by the humans that were lucky enough to witness them.
Minute carvings of floral vines, elephants, and other ethnic motifs make up for the decoration on the body of this exquisite marble pot which as its central image has- Krishna on a boat ride with the Gopis and Krishna lifting the mountain Govardhana to protect the people of Brija. The first Lila instills a feeling of Prema or divine love while the second one fills the heart with Bhakti or devotion. The detailing and realism with which Krishna, gopis, and residents of Brija taking refuge under Govardhana are presented- especially the facial features and physical form drawn on the marble pot, makes it an artistically marvelous home decor piece.
Golden
outlines contrasted with the deep greyish background add a difficult-to-miss
glint to the marble pot, which is embossed by the Lilas of Krishna and is
filled with the “Rasa” (nectar) of the presence of the divine.
