These elephants and their tapestries are beautifully painted!
I recall my friend from India gave me an elephant decor when I moved away. I certainly can imagine these ornaments as symbolic of carrying one of the "wise men" that Christians celebrate at Epiphany (January 6).
I love this pair of ornaments. The are beautiful by themselves and stand out in the Christmas tree. They tell a great story of both Mexicoās are and culture as well as my journey this year.
