Antique pair of mid 19th century Raj period Indian ceremonial bowls circa 1860

About the Item

This highly decorative pair of mid 19th century Raj period Indian ceremonial bowls is very unusual. They are made from dense red hardwood turned by hand on a simple pole lathe and then intricately brass mounted with ornately engraved bands, roundels and motifs secured in place with brass nails. In addition, the bases are also finished in brass which is engraved with a single flower head. These bases are also nailed except steel nails have been used on this occasion. The bowls are most eye catching with almost a classical look to their design and decoration. One bowl is slightly larger than the other. Indian, circa 1860 Dimensions of the largest bowl: Height 11cm x width 15cm x depth 15cm Thank you for looking at this pair of Indian Raj period ceremonial bowls. Please let us know if you need any further information and photographs. We are always happy to help

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...
