Hand Carved Wooden Folding Hands Hindu Altar Ganesha Lakshmi India Spiritual Decor

Beautiful hand-carved wooden folding devotional altar designed in the shape of two praying hands. The piece opens on a small wooden hinge to reveal detailed carvings of Ganesha and Lakshmi inside.

Ganesha, the elephant-headed Hindu deity, is widely associated with wisdom, prosperity and the removal of obstacles, while Lakshmi is associated with prosperity, abundance and good fortune. Together they make this a meaningful little devotional or display piece.

The exterior has a wonderful sculptural hand form, while the interior features surprisingly intricate carving for its compact size.
