This "friendly tai" elephant displays a strong magnificent presence as a leader and protector of his herd. Beautifully carved rich brown wood with a raised trunk as if searching for water. A very lovely addition to my collection.
I have been collecting elephant sculptures for man years. This is one of the best and largest in my collection. I receive may compliments on it. They always ask where I got it -- I spread about Novica.com.
The artistically intricate curvature of the branches and whimsical leaves are a testament to superior carving mastery and I look forward to future purchases to add to my gallery wall...lovely!
