DETAILS
Created as an architectural element, this interesting, mythical animal is a vyala, a mythical creature with the head of an elephant and the body of a lion, used to control human passions. This one is especially charming, retaining its blue-gray body with white and gold details. It would make a wonderful garden accessory, but certainly would find many decorative possibilities inside the home.
