Soapstone Box with Ganesha 24K Gold Foil

Description

This premium keepsake box is carved from authentic Indian soapstone (Palewa stone), polished to a smooth finish, and adorned with a 24K gold foil imprint of Lord Ganesha. Each piece is meticulously handcrafted, merging natural artistry with sacred symbolism and luxury detail.

Geological Background & Workability
Soapstone is a talc-rich metamorphic rock (Mohs hardness 1–2) that forms under intense heat and pressure. Its softness allows for detailed carving, making it a material of choice for artisans across India for centuries. Despite being gentle to carve, it is durable, heat-resistant, and long-lasting, ensuring both function and beauty in daily use.

Sacred Symbolism of Ganesha
Lord Ganesha, the beloved Hindu deity, is known as the remover of obstacles, patron of wisdom, and bringer of prosperity. His presence symbolizes new beginnings, success, and protection. The gold foil imprint adds both brilliance and reverence, reflecting divine light and abundance.

Functional Elegance
Measuring approx 3.5 inches, this box is ideal for safeguarding jewelry, crystals, mala beads, herbs, or other sacred items. Its size makes it versatile for altars, meditation corners, desks, or as a meaningful gift imbued with cultural depth.

Metaphysical Touch
Soapstone is often regarded as a stone of calm and grounding, harmonizing energies and providing a sense of stability. Combined with the spiritual power of Ganesha and the radiant energy of gold, this box becomes more than storage—it’s a piece of sacred art for mindful living.

Care & Handling Guidelines

• Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth.

• Avoid water immersion or abrasive cleaning (to protect gold foil detail).

• Store thoughtfully to preserve carving detail and gold brilliance.
