Ganesha embodies superiority of the intellect, wisdom and the ability to overcome obstacles, the very factors required for any worldly enterprise to succeed. He is also associated with material success. Is it any mystery therefore, that he is invoked at the start of all ventures and important ceremonies like weddings? Hindu Gods are often depicted with jewels in temples as a symbol of abundance and their superiority over us mortals. True to that tradition, this Ganesha is decorated with beads, and kundan stones all over. Colorful hand-painting, intricate bead work and a pleasing seated pose with a turban makes this Ganesha a great find. Measuring 11 inches high and 9 inches wide, this Ganesha is lightweight and made of resin. Due to handmade nature of this statue, minor defects such as missing beads and scratches are possible, but add artistic character to the piece.
