Meenakari Ambabari Elephant Statue – Blue Enamel Metal Elephant with Royal Howdah
This Meenakari Ambabari elephant statue is crafted from high-grade polished metal and decorated using the traditional Jaipur Meenakari technique. The elephant body is finished in deep cobalt blue enamel, with the Ambabari (royal palanquin) painted in contrasting red and orange tones. The floral and geometric patterns are hand-painted with mineral-based pigments, giving the piece a high-gloss finish that holds its colour over time.
Meenakari Enamel Work
Meenakari is an ancient craft from Jaipur where vibrant enamel colours are fused onto metal surfaces by hand. The tri-colour design on this elephant — cobalt blue body, red and orange Ambabari — reflects the colour palette traditionally associated with Rajasthan's royal craft heritage. The Ambabari design represents a ceremonial elephant carrying a royal palanquin, a motif used in festive and auspicious contexts across India.
