A large hand decorated Indian Raj period brass Jardinière circa 1880

About the Item

This large and impressive polished brass jardiere or twin handled urn is highly decorative. It is hand worked in reclaimed sheet brass which originally came from some large German brass object and the words made in Germany are still visible within its decorated rim. Metal was difficult to obtain at this period in India. The large bulbous body rises to a smaller neck with a flared and fluted rim. And to each side, there is an elephant mask head ring handle. The whole of the body is hand worked with intricate foliate boarders and a continuous central scene of numerous animals amongst trees and foliage. This artistic work is highly skilled and all produced free hand into the sheet metal with punches and chisels working from the front and the back to produce the ornate deep relief decoration This decorative large Raj period Jardinière is in good original condition.

An Indian Raj period carved figure of the Goddess Parvati, circa 1900
Located in Central England, GB
This superb hand carved sandalwood figure is Indian from the Raj period and dates to circa 1900. It depicts the Hindu goddess Parvati, who represents love, fertility and devotion. Parvati is beautiful. She is semi-naked and very ornate in her elaborate costume. She is holding her Deity son Ganesha, who is part human with an elephant’s head and is known in Hindu mythology as the remover of obstacles. This remarkable figure group is carved from solid sandalwood, the very material that Hindu mythology suggests Parvati made her son Ganesha from. The figure group is exceptionally well carved equal to what could be described in European circles as exhibition quality. The finely carved figure is raised and mounted onto an elaborate carved and moulded stepped stand made from matching figured sandalwood. This very fine piece of Hindu art...
