Bring the ancient power, fierce protection, and sacred harmony of the Queen of Heaven into your devotional space with this magnificent, hand-carved wooden statue of Ishtar (Inanna). Revered across ancient Sumeria and Mesopotamia as the sovereign goddess of love, beauty, fertility, and war, this striking figure links deeply with the ancient Venus traditions, the power of the Anunnaki, and the esoteric mysteries of Babalon. Masterfully sculpted from premium natural wood, this breathtaking devotional icon serves as a powerful focal point for any Wiccan altar, pagan ritual space, witch's cabinet, or collection of esoteric art.
This meticulous high-relief carving depicts the great goddess in her formidable warrior aspect. Standing with divine authority, she places one foot upon the head of a defeated man and the other upon a roaring lion, perfectly symbolizing ultimate victory, sovereignty, and untamed strength. She proudly holds a bow and her seventh arrow, with six arrows fanned out protectively behind her sweeping wings. A traditional horned crown rises above her head, surmounted by the gleaming eight-pointed Star of Ishtar—the ultimate cosmic symbol of Venus. Framed by classical Mesopotamian columns guarded by carved sacred owls, this statue beautifully captures the eternal feminine force that bridges heaven and earth, light and darkness.
