$93.00  $88.35

Own a piece of the Himalayas—where bronze, turquoise, and coral carry centuries of sacred stories. Vintage/antique early 20th-century.

Crafted in Nepal, these meticulously hand-detailed bronze figurines are more than decorative art—they embody deep spiritual meaning in Himalayan culture.

• The Elephant (Ganesha’s Sacred Animal):
A symbol of wisdom, strength, and good fortune in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Elephants are revered as carriers of cosmic energy and remover of obstacles (like Lord Ganesha). The turquoise inlay represents protection and connection to the divine.
• The Rabbit (Lunar Symbolism):
In Tibetan/Nepali folklore, the rabbit is often linked to self-sacrifice (e.g., the Jataka Tale where the Buddha, as a rabbit, offered himself to feed a starving monk). The coral inlay signifies vitality and the life force.

Minor wear consistent with age. The rabbit is missing a single turquoise bead, not noticeable when displayed. The rabbit is about 3 long, the elephant is 4 .
