A curious blending of Shaiva and Vaishnava traditions. This unusual Ganesha iconography features the son of Shiva with the Vaishnava tilaka on His forehead. Yet, He is a contemplative stance like His father’s Adinath-roopa and is possessed of a multitude of arms (shashabhujadhari).


Beneath the seated figure are gathered the coils of Sheshanaga. The five-hooded serpent, who is a staple of the original Vishnu iconography, bares its multitudinous fangs above Ganesha’s crown. One may zoom in on and appreciate the dense, lifelike serrations on the underbellies.


The rest of the murti bears every finesse of feature and the natural metallic sheen of a superior bronze alloy. These are characteristic of the authentic reproduction of Hoysala-period art.

Introducing the Majestic 18" Superfine Lord Ganesha

This exquisite 18-inch bronze statue of Lord Ganesha, seated majestically upon a serpent throne, is a testament to the artistry and devotion of Indian craftsmanship. The intricate details and rich patina of this Panchaloha (five-metal alloy) sculpture capture the essence of Ganesha's benevolent and playful nature. His four arms hold his traditional symbols: the modaka (sweet), a lotus flower, an axe, and a broken tusk. The serene expression on his face invites contemplation and inner peace, embodying his role as the remover of obstacles. The careful craftsmanship of this statue is evident in every curve and detail, making it a truly exceptional piece of religious art.

The Symbolism of Ganesha and the Sheshnag

Ganesha, the elephant-headed god, is revered as the remover of obstacles and the god of beginnings. He is invoked at the start of any new venture, ensuring a smooth and successful path ahead. His large ears symbolize his capacity to listen attentively to all, while his wisdom is evident in his thoughtful countenance. He is revered not only in Hindu tradition but has also become a beloved deity embraced by individuals from all faiths who appreciate his message of resilience and positivity. Ganesha’s presence is believed to bring good fortune and blessings to the household. The Sheshnag, the multi-headed serpent that forms Ganesha's throne in this statue, represents eternity, cosmic energy, and the cyclical nature of time. Sheshnag is a cosmic serpent often depicted supporting the earth and the universe, symbolic of infinite power and potential. In this context, Ganesha's placement atop the Sheshnag signifies his divine authority and ultimate power over the universe. The Sheshnag's presence elevates the symbolism of the statue, highlighting Ganesha's supreme position in the cosmic order.

A Masterpiece of Bronze Sculpture

Crafted from Panchaloha, a sacred five-metal alloy (typically consisting of gold, silver, copper, brass and zinc), this Ganesha statue is not just a decorative piece but a work of religious significance. The traditional method of casting and finishing results in a rich golden hue that radiates warmth and spirituality. The intricate details, from the fine textures of the Sheshnag's scales to the delicate adornments on Ganesha’s attire, speak volumes about the devotion and expertise of the artisans who created it. The size and weight of the statue (18 x 12 x 12 inches) make it a significant and commanding presence wherever it is placed, demanding attention and admiration. This statue is a true piece of heirloom-quality art, intended to be cherished for generations to come.

Bring the Blessings of Ganesha into Your Home

This magnificent statue is more than just a beautiful object; it is a powerful symbol of faith and hope. Placing this statue in your home or office is said to bring blessings, prosperity, and positive energy to its surroundings. Its presence invites the remover of obstacles into your space, ushering in auspiciousness and success in your endeavors. This statue serves as a constant reminder of the importance of wisdom, resilience, and the pursuit of inner peace. The detailed artistry and profound symbolism make it not only a beautiful addition to any space but also a powerful and meaningful work of art that will inspire awe and devotion for years to come.
