Its striking contemporary profile serves beautifully as an abstract blue brass Ganapati focal point, making it a profound brass musical Ganesha for living room decor or a thoughtful gift for a musician or art collector. Standing at 11.7 inches tall, it reaches roughly the height of a large French press coffee maker, utilizing vertical space efficiently. Despite its seemingly delicate, elongated neck, the solid metal casting holds a substantive 2.91 kg of physical gravity. The intricate manual patination process required to flawlessly separate the chalky blue finish from the gleaming gold highlights marks this as a highly specialized, premium foundry creation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCompose a vibrant, melody-inspired traditional space by introducing the dual-tone brass Saraswati statue to the ensemble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casa Mandala ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46139898888367,"sku":"VSP-045","price":8800.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8851\/9855\/files\/78_Compressed.jpg?v=1761980183","url":"https:\/\/www.thecasamandala.com\/products\/painted-brass-musical-ganesha-sculpture","provider":"Casa Mandala ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
