Lotus-Seated Ganesh Exquisite Oval Rosewood Inlay Frame
The Ganesh Exquisite Oval Rosewood Inlay Frame showcases exceptional craftsmanship from Mysore rosewood inlay tradition. This craft has rich roots in Karnataka’s artistic heritage, drawing influences from Persian artistry and the patronage of rulers like Tipu Sultan and the Wodeyar dynasty.
