Handcrafted Bastar Dhokra Brass Elephant with Two Tribal Riders
Width: 16 inches (40 cm)
Depth: 4 inches (10 cm)
Bring the character of India’s traditional tribal craftsmanship into your space with this handcrafted Bastar Dhokra brass elephant sculpture, depicting two figures riding an intricately decorated elephant. Designed by skilled Indian artisans, this statement piece combines an expressive elephant form with detailed ornamental work that reflects the distinctive visual language of traditional Dhokra metal craft.
The sculpture is made using the Dhokra (Dokra) lost-wax metal-casting tradition, an established Indian craft technique in which individually crafted forms and surface details create an organic, handmade character.
The elephant is presented with two riders seated on its decorated back, giving the sculpture a narrative quality rather than making it simply an animal figurine. Whether displayed in a living room, office, entryway, library or curated art collection, this Bastar Dhokra elephant statue works as a distinctive conversation piece while celebrating India's folk-art heritage.
Why This Elephant Feels Different: Uses & Benefits
Turns an Empty Corner Into an Art Moment
Its elephant-and-rider composition gives the sculpture a strong visual presence, making it useful for filling an otherwise plain console, bookshelf, display cabinet or side table.
Adds an Indian Heritage Accent
The Dhokra-inspired surface detailing introduces an unmistakably Indian craft character to contemporary, rustic, traditional and eclectic interiors.
A Conversation Starter With a Narrative
Unlike a simple elephant figurine, the inclusion of two riders gives viewers something to notice and explore. It can become a natural talking point when displayed in a living room, reception area or office.

What is a Dhokra elephant statue made of?

Yes. The sculpture is presented as a handcrafted Bastar Dhokra artwork. Handmade casting and finishing can result in subtle differences in texture and detailing from one piece to another, which is normal for artisan-made metal décor.

For decorative impact, consider a console table, entrance area, bookshelf, display cabinet or living-room sideboard where the sculpture can be viewed from multiple angles. Leave enough surrounding space so the riders and ornamental details remain visually noticeable.
