Elephant Statue Sculpted in Grey Marble

Provenance

Carved from solid grey marble, this elephant statue carries weight in more ways than one. In India, elephants have always been more than just their size. They stand at the crossroads of myth, religion and daily life. They appear at temple gates, carved into palace walls, paraded during festivals. They've been tied to Ganesh, the remover of obstacles and to Indra's great white elephant, Airavata, the mount of kings and gods.

To carve one from stone is to call upon that storied lineage, to honour both the animal's strength and the stories it has carried for generations. This elephant statue isn't about refinement for its own sake. Its about giving shape to an animal that has come to embody resilience, intelligence and quiet authority, rendered here in solid grey marble that will last as long as the myths themselves.
