Sevan/Shriparni Wood Lotus Ganesha

Lotus-Seated Ganesha Carved in Shriparni Wood

The lotus is what sets this idol apart from the other Sevan wood Ganeshas. Ganeshji is seated on an open bloom, the flower carved petal by petal below him, a form that stands for purity and for wisdom that unfolds rather than arrives at once.

The wood is Shriparni, also called Sevan, the same sattvic timber used for idols meant to be worshipped daily. At 15cm the piece is tall enough for the lotus detailing to be visible from a normal viewing distance.

This is the one people pick when the idol is being given rather than kept, usually for a housewarming or when someone sets up a new mandir at home. The lotus carving makes it feel like a considered choice instead of a standard idol.
