A beautiful decorative and spiritual carving.
A raised elephant trunk is said to dispense positive energy, luck, prosperity and kindness. It is a movement elephants use to greet each other in the wild.
In Chinese Feng Shui It is good luck to place an elephant with its upward pointing trunk towards a doorway to welcome you home.
In Indian mythology the elephant is regarded as a celestial entity due to its association with many deities like Ganesha, Indra, and Lakshmi.
Elephants are decorated during temple festivals, in the Indian state of Kerala . They wear a distinctive golden head covering called a Nettipattam, and Muthukuda.
The Nettipattam refers to the ornamental headdress, usually made of gold or silver, worn by the elephant, featuring intricate designs and embellishments, the Muthukuda is a colorful, embroidered cloth that drapes over the elephant's back, often adorned with traditional patterns and symbols, contributing to the grandeur of cultural and religious processions in this popular Indian state.
