Seated Lord 'Ganesh' Statue in Brass and Copper Mix

Provenance

Long ago, as the sage Vyasa prepared to dictate the epic Mahabharata, he needed someone to write it down without pause. Ganesha agreed, but halfway through, the pen broke. Without hesitation, he broke off one of his own tusks and used it to continue writing, sacrificing a part of himself to preserve the sacred knowledge. This act of devotion, wisdom, and courage is remembered in every depiction of Ganesha with a single tusk. It is a story of ingenuity, humility, and the willingness to give oneself for a higher purpose.

This statue captures that spirit. Crafted from copper and brass, it glows with warmth and life, each surface catching light differently. The elephant head turns slightly, serene yet powerful, the trunk poised with intention. Every curve—the conch, the axe, the detailing of his ornaments, and even the tiny mouse at his feet—reflects the balance of strength, humility, and insight.

More than décor, this statue anchors a space, turning it into a reminder that beginnings are sacred, obstacles are lessons, and true wisdom is earned through courage, devotion, and cleverness.
