Large (4kg) Indian Bronze Statue Ganesh,c1890

19th century
For Sale by Curious Antiques
Description

Large 19th century Indian bronze/brass statue of the Hindu god Ganesh, c 1890. This is a finely cast impressive piece with real presence, standing on a wood base. The detail and composition is very good. I think given the weight (4.2 kg) it is bronze with a brass patination but it could be brass. It is in good original condition and has aged well with good colour/patina. There is slight movement if you apply pressure to the base ,it is most likely secured to the base with bolts which just need tightening so very minor. Please refer to the detailed photographs and feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like to view the item.

Size: 38cm tall x 17cm wide , weight 4.2 kg. I will happily ship worldwide, but this is a item so please contact me for a bespoke quote for your Country.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Lord Ganesha is revered in Hindu tradition as the remover of obstacles and the deity of wisdom and new beginnings. Statues produced during the late 19th century were typically commissioned for personal shrines or devotional worship, created using centuries-old casting techniques.

19th-century Indian metal sculptures were crafted using the cire perdue (lost-wax) casting technique with bronze or brass copper alloys. This process allowed artisans to hand-chase intricate details across the crown, clothing, and sacred attributes after casting.

Authentic period pieces exhibit soft surface wear from devotional handling, hand-chased tool marks, and oxidisation in deep recessed areas. The underside often demonstrates manual finishing techniques rather than modern uniform machine cuts.

Position the metal sculpture on a wooden console table, sideboard, or dedicated alcove shelf to act as a focal accent. Combining dark or aged metalwork with modern minimalist backdrops creates an effective visual contrast.

Dust the item regularly using a dry microfibre cloth or a soft bristles brush to clear dust from intricate crevices. Avoid applying chemical polishes or abrasive metal cleaners, as these strip away historical surface patina.
