The State Animal, the elephant is featured on the emblem of the Government of Kerala and its miniature wooden statue is an oustanding traditional showpiece. Elephants are core components of religious functions and rituals across all communities in Kerala and are synonymous with all aspects of our life. Kerala, rich in culture and heritage, is a land of elephant lovers. These majestic, symbolic elements signify wisdom and good fortune, and adds a tasteful twist to any home where they are placed in. Built by the finest craftsmen in the State, they are among the most revered artefacts made in God’s Own Country.
