Dhokra Ganesha

Dhokra Ganesha is a handmade figurine of Lord Ganesha made using the age-old metal casting technique. Ganesha, the Hindu god symbolizes protection and removal of obstacles and is a great gift for housewarmings and beginnings.

The ancient art form of Dhokra is believed to have its roots extending over 4000 years ago, with its origins dating back to the Harrapan Civilization. For millennia, the skilled artisans of the Dhokra Damar tribes, scattered across central India, have honed their craft using the intricate wax metal casting technique. Employing a special alloy comprised of Brass, Nickel, and Zinc, known as Dhokra metal, they create exquisite pieces of art characterized by their timeless antique appearance.

The Dhokra Ganesha is a unique gifting option and a perfect addition to the home décor of art lovers who appreciate vintage aesthetics.

Care: Over time, brass develops a charming antique appearance due to tarnishing. To preserve its shine, it is essential to clean each Dhokra artifact regularly with a soft, dry cloth and store them away from moisture and abrasive substances
