Each piece is carefully hand-painted by skilled artisans who understand the cultural significance of these majestic creatures.
The elephant holds deep significance in Kerala's culture and Hindu tradition, symbolizing wisdom, strength, prosperity, and divine power. Temple elephants are considered sacred and are treated with great reverence. Owning a Pooram elephant showpiece brings the blessings and auspicious energy of these magnificent festivals into your home.
This showpiece is perfect for home temples and pooja rooms, living room display celebrating Kerala culture, office desks for prosperity and wisdom, festive decorations during Onam and other celebrations, or as a meaningful gift for housewarmings and special occasions.
