Gajalakshmi Antique Waist Belt with ornate links and hanging drops

This Antique Waist Belt features a prominent seated Lakshmi figure at the centre, framed by intricate sculptural detailing and curved ornamental elements. Distinctive elephant figures are positioned around the central composition, adding a traditional temple-jewellery character to the design. The belt extends through a sequence of finely detailed links, including floral, leaf-like and teardrop-shaped elements arranged symmetrically along the waistline. Small suspended drops are incorporated around the central section and connecting panels, adding movement and dimension to the overall design. The combination of devotional Lakshmi detailing, elephant forms and elaborate linkwork gives this waist belt a richly traditional and handcrafted appearance.
