Ganesha .925 Silver pendant with ruby

This was purchased from a local antique store. Priced at $252, but we believe it's worth a lot more. Made of .925 silver, the detail on this piece is impeccable. If this piece speaks to you, get it. Here's a little background on Ganesha (or Ganesh) as taken from Wikipedia. He is widely revered, more specifically, as the remover of obstacles and thought to bring good luck; the patron of arts and sciences; and the deva of intellect and wisdom. As the god of beginnings, he is honoured at the start of rites and ceremonies. Ganesha is also invoked as a patron of letters and learning during writing sessions. Several texts relate mythological anecdotes associated with his birth and exploits.
