The artistry of the sculptor is seen in the elegant design and the intricate filigree work on the rich gold sandalwood, mounted on a base of pure rosewood.

Lord Vinayaka is deeply revered as the Lord of Auspicious Beginnings, Remover of Obstacles, and the God of intellect and wisdom.

Vinayaka, the destroyer of obstacles is seen here standing on a beautiful lotus, portraying a combination of power and gentleness. The deity is depicted in a vibrant posture, holding a noose and conch (shankha). The Noose draws and binds closely those who cherish Him. The shankha is an auspicious symbol for protection against evil and for attracting good luck and prosperity. The right hand is raised in a blessing mudra while the left hand has a laddu, symbolising abundance and wealth. The rat is the Lord’s vehicle and represents the ability to tenaciously overcome obstacles.  

Care: Keep indoors. Lightly dust the figurine as required. We recommend the use of a mild wood cleaner on a swab of cotton wool.
