Embark on a journey through time and art with our enchanting ten-armed Brass Ganesha. Standing tall, each of Ganesha's arms narrates a legend, holding symbols from the elephant goad and bell to the Mahabharata-inscribed tusk and the irresistible bowl of sweets. Infused with the antique green of the rare verde-gris patina, this Ganesha evokes the rich heritage of Balinese craftsmanship.
But it's not just the deity that tells tales. Cradling this exquisite brass figure is a rustic wooden frame, its rich textures, knots, cracks, and holes narrating sagas of nature. This raw charm transitions smoothly into a sleek, modern base, combining two contrasting worlds.
Conceptualized by our visionary Balinese artist, this statue represents a unique fusion of traditional mythology, contemporary design, and raw natural beauty. Perfect for any living space, it promises not just to be a centerpiece but a topic of admiration and discussion, capturing hearts and invoking tales of mythology and art.

The chubby, gentle, wise, elephant-headed Ganesh, or Ganesha, is one of Hinduisms most popular deities. He is the remover of obstacles, the deity whom worshippers first acknowledge when they visit a temple. He is also patron of letters and of learning; he is the legendary scribe who, using his broken tusk, which he often holds, wrote down parts of the Mahabharata epic. Ganesh is usually depicted colored red; he is pot bellied, has one tusk broken, and has four arms that may hold a pasam, a goad, and a pot of rice or sweetmeats. The sweet meats are held in a type of bowl known as a laddus. His appetite for these sweets is legendary and offerings of them are often left at his shrine.
Statues of Ganesh can be found in most Indian towns. His image is placed where new houses are to be built; he is honored at the start of a journey or business venture, and poets traditionally invoke him at the start of a book.
A pasam is a triple twine weapon. Each of the three twines represents, arrogance and conceit, Maya - the illusory nature of the real world, ignorance. In Hindu ideology weapons are a viewed as symbolic tools to destroy the ego rather than to cause any type of bloodshed. Goads (or elephant prods) are typically used to direct elephants. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance and illusions of this earthly world just as a mahout would steer an elephant away from any treacherous path.
