Product description
Estimated value: €900 – €1,400 19th-century Ganesha in bronze, antique handmade sculpture – lot 117 Antique handmade bronze Ganesha sculpture from the 19th century, originating from the Himalayas or North India. The sculpture depicts Ganesha in a relaxed reclining pose on a daybed, a rare and playful iconographic variant that significantly differs from the more formal seated representations. The design, asymmetry, and clear differences between the left and right sides confirm manual crafting and not mass production. The surface shows a well-worn patina with signs of wear consistent with long-term use and age. In recessed areas, remnants of old gilding are visible, with natural oxidation underneath. The underside and construction indicate a traditionally cast sculpture without modern interventions. One leg is missing, which is consistent with age and use and does not detract from its authenticity. Dimensions: H 18 cm × W 20 cm Weight: 2.6 kg Origin: Himalayas or North India Period: 19th century Material: bronze Condition: antique, one missing leg Includes appraisal report Expertise & Symbolism Do you wish to fully understand the deeper iconographic meaning, the correct mudras, and the ritual context of this object?
