A Royal Elephant Pair For Your Home
This is a pair of Gajraj elephants, dressed the way elephants are dressed for a festival. Each has a black body, a trunk lifted high and a royal blue blanket printed with flowers. A maroon saddle panel, antique-gold trim and a jewel-style panel along the back finish the look. Set together, the hathi joda makes a bright, traditional focal point.
What It Is Made Of
Each elephant is cast in polyresin and painted. It is not marble, brass or metal. The gold is paint, and the sparkle on the back comes from jewel-style details, not real gems. Small differences in the painted pattern between the two pieces are normal.
Size And Placement
Each elephant stands about 9.5 inches tall on its own black base, which is 8 inches long and 5 inches wide. Each one weighs about 800 g, so the pair weighs about 1.6 kg in all. Place them on a level surface: an entrance console, a living room sideboard, a display shelf, an office desk or a reception counter. Keep them together as a pair, or put one in each of two rooms.
What The Elephant Stands For
In Indian tradition the elephant stands for wisdom, strength and steadiness. A pair with raised trunks is believed to welcome good fortune, and many families place one near the entrance for this reason, following Vastu. These are cultural beliefs, not a promise of any result.
Gifting And Care
A thoughtful gift for Diwali, a griha pravesh, a wedding, an anniversary or an office opening. The trunks and ears are fine details, so unwrap and check both pieces before you hand them over. Lift each elephant by its base. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth, and avoid water and cleaning sprays.
