A festive brass Ganpati 
This time around, the occasion was Sankashta Chaturthi. The idol looks beautiful and majestic with its intricate details, while the refurbished carved elephant stand serves as a perfect pedestal for the Ganpati.

The bright yellow marigolds and rose petals provide a dash of color in the solemn setting

Since the decor of the surrounding area is sober and neutral, with the veneer wall unit serving as the backdrop (and the ceremonies were to be performed in the evening), the floating marigolds and rose petals in the antique finish brass urli lend some color and brightness to the room.

The end result was a resplendent display, colorful and fragrant, and joyfully festive!
