About the Item
Rare Votive Miniature Silver Figure of Ganesha
Rajasthan, 19th–Early 20th Century
Dimensions: 5 × 3.7 × 2.7 cm
Weight: 23.8 grams
Material: Solid silver
Provenance: Rajasthan, India
This rare and finely cast votive figure of Ganesha is a striking example of devotional art from 19th-century Rajasthan. Sculpted in solid silver, the figure portrays Ganesha—the beloved remover of obstacles and patron of wisdom and beginnings—with a calm, auspicious presence that belies its small scale.
Such miniature icons were traditionally placed on private altars or carried as protective talismans, making them deeply personal expressions of faith. Today, figures of this quality and age have become increasingly scarce.
A beautifully detailed and spiritually resonant piece of regional silverwork.

19th Century Indian Marble Carving of Ganesha, Remover of Obstacles
Located in Stamford, CT
Marble carving of the elephant headed four armed Hindu God Ganesha. With traces of old paint, it now has a rich honey patina from years of devotees touching the surface. Shown seated on a throne in the yoga pose, sukhasana, cross legged meditation pose. Two of his hands grasp a battle axe and a lasso, symbols of his role as a rescuer and protector. His other two hands hold an elephant goad and one of his own tusks, which he broke off in a fit of anger. His rat vehicle is below him.
A great gift for the yogi or yogini in your life. Every home should have one.
