Details

According to Hindu mythology, vahanas are animal or mythological creatures that deities use as vehicles. So if you were wondering why god Ganesha is often depicted with a mouse by his side, it's because it is his vahana. The two of them are the inspiration behind artisan Ashish Mehta's spectacular sculpture hand-carved from local kadam wood in India that will be a focal point anywhere you choose to display it.

“So well crafted”

I am an elephant lover and this does not disappoint. So beautifully carved and thin enough for my Bible.

“These turtles sure have a story to tell!”

I originally bought this set to keep one and give one away -- but now they are together on my fridge.... They need to stay together - supporting each other. I bought the last set. I hope Ashish makes more for you to purchase. I looked at all of the photos posted and the turtles are in conversation. Quite a story! Thank you Ashish for these treasures.
