Antique 19th Century Indian King Sculpture – Bhim Singh of Mewar
Hand-Carved Teakwood | Mounted on Iron Stand | Rajasthan, India

Bring a powerful symbol of Indian heritage into your space with this rare 19th-century sculpture of Maharana Bhim Singh of Mewar (1768–1828), one of Rajasthan’s most revered rulers. Hand-carved from solid teakwood, this antique figure is a magnificent representation of the royal legacy of Mewar—a kingdom known for its valor, independence, and artistic brilliance.

This commanding figure captures Maharana Bhim Singh in traditional royal attire, with a sculpted turban, dhoti, and regal stance. Carved in Rajasthan during the 1800s, it likely once formed part of a temple façade or noble estate decor. Despite its weathered condition, the figure retains a profound sense of dignity and gravitas—echoing the strength of a monarch who ruled Udaipur through periods of complex transition.

Mounted on a custom black iron stand, this teakwood sculpture becomes a striking display piece that fuses sculptural art, royal history, and heritage storytelling. The rich patina and aged wood grain reveal its 200-year journey, making it ideal for collectors, interior stylists, or those passionate about Indian cultural legacy.

Who Was Bhim Singh of Mewar?
Maharana Bhim Singh ruled the Kingdom of Mewar (present-day Udaipur) from 1778 until his death in 1828. His reign followed an era of political turbulence and Mughal decline, where Mewar maintained its sovereign status through diplomacy and resistance. Known for his cultural patronage and loyalty to Rajput traditions, Bhim Singh was a key figure in preserving the identity of the Mewar dynasty during British colonial expansion. This sculpture immortalises his noble presence and remains a rare, tangible tribute to Rajasthan's royal lineage.
