DETAILS
Hand carved of teak, with a silver overlay, each of these antique figures depicts a domesticated, Indian elephant fitted with a headpiece and back chair for a passenger. Notice the pleasant expression on the faces of these creatures, and the charming characterization. These are unusual decorative accessories, but would also make great lamp bases!
