Description

The owl (‘Ulluka’) is associated with the Goddess of Wealth, Lakshmi. Having one around the house brings material comfort. It is traditionally found in villages homes. Owl, a predominantly nocturnal and solitary bird, features widely in folktales and stories across cultures as a symbol of wisdom and wealth. Keeping Ulluka at home is known to bring fortune. The Indian subcontinent is home to more than 30 species of Ulluka. This remarkable bird can turn its head to 270 degrees in either direction.

Ulluka peg dolls are carved out of wood by craftsmen called Sutradhars. They are from the ravines of river Ganga in the eastern part of India. These Ulluka peg dolls are perfect Indian souvenir.
