Embodied Myth & Art:
In rich oak wood, the ancient goddess of love and war comes alive. This hand made Ishtar (Inanna) statue radiates divine feminine energy and the mystique of Mesopotamian mythology. Every curve and detail is sculpted to honor the goddess’s dual nature – bestowing blessings of love and fertility, while empowering you with her warrior strength. It’s a poetic centerpiece that invites the presence of an age-old deity into your modern sacred space.

Symbolism & Mythology:
Inanna – known as Ishtar in Akkadian lore – is the Mesopotamian goddess of love, war, and fertility. She was revered as the courageous "Queen of Heaven," uniting opposites: passion and battle, creation and power. This statue captures her essence, from the serene strength in her expression to the symbolic details that echo ancient temple art. Displaying this figurine serves as a daily reminder of the goddess’s blessings, courage, and the divine feminine force she embodies.

Craftsmanship & Material:
Each goddess figurine is meticulously hand-crafted from solid oak wood. Oak is celebrated for its strength and sacredness, infusing the sculpture with a grounded, enduring presence. The wood is finished with a stain and matte varnish that enhances both the carved details and the natural wood grain with a subtle, refined sheen. (The deep black version uses a traditional blackening technique to achieve its rich charcoal tone while preserving the oak’s texture.) Every piece is a unique work of spiritual art – slight variations in wood grain and carving details make your statue truly one-of-a-kind.

Sizes: Choose the ideal height for your sacred space:

  • Small – 23 cm (≈9") – Perfect for personal altars or compact shelves.

  • Medium – 37 cm (≈14.5") – Great for tabletops or intimate displays.

  • Large – 60 cm (≈23.6") – A commanding centerpiece for larger altars.

Finishes: Select a finish that resonates with your style:

  • Brown Oak – A warm, natural oak tone that accentuates the wood’s organic grain and carving details.

  • Deep Blackened Oak – A bold, ebony-black finish (achieved by traditional wood-blackening) that lends an ancient, mystical aura.

Spiritual & Decorative Use:
Invite the sacred into your life. This Mesopotamian deity sculpture is perfect for pagan and Wiccan altars, rituals, and meditation spaces. Place it in your temple room, on a mantle, or among crystals and candles to enrich your spiritual practice. As an altar decor piece, the Ishtar/Inanna statue serves as a focal point for prayer, spellwork, or simply as inspiring art that honors the divine feminine. Its presence can transform any room into a sanctuary of mythic beauty and powerful intention.

Meaningful Gift:
Whether you’re a devotee of goddess spirituality, a mythology enthusiast, or a lover of handcrafted art, this statue makes a thoughtful gift. It arrives ready to empower and enchant – a symbol of the goddess of love and war, carved from the heart of oak. Offer it to someone celebrating a rite of passage, a wedding, or a new home, and let the blessings of Ishtar bring love, courage, and prosperity into their life.
