India's revered Lord Ganesha and his mouse chariot symbolize his victory over the pests and rodents that destroy crops, staying true to his name - destroyer of obstacles. Together, they reach the nook and crannies of the world to destroy the darkness of evil and spread the light of knowledge and well-being. This handicraft is hand-carved with immense care by the revered Kondapalli artisans from Andhra Pradesh. Marking the onset of January is the great Indian festival of Sankranti, where Kondapalli toys of cultural prominence are collected and displayed. India, being a kaleidoscope of colors and sounds, never falls short on creative handicraft themes that combine culture with esthetics. Like every single time, the artisans of Kondapalli deliver a masterpiece with this Ganesha Ratham toy, handcrafted with extraordinary care from Ankudu softwood. With ambitious shapes in mind, the artisan wields his expertise on the softwood and presents a stunning idol, both sustainable and spectacular. The artisans alter their choice of color palette to suit the ambiance of the cultural theme. With sheer simplicity and vibrancy, the Kondapalli toys are a historic addition to your living rooms. Believed to have migrated from Rajasthan to parts of Andhra Pradesh over time, the Kondapalli toys have enjoyed the status of internationally reclaimed art. However, with falling prices and amenities for this wonderful craft, the value for something customized and handmade is still immortal.
