Beige 1001 Summer Nights

I ordered these in addition to the soapstone carved box. I have a thing for elephants. They are beautifully carved and hold a carving within a carving. There is another smaller elephant just visible within. For me, it symbolically represents each of our species carry the future within, along with the wisdom and the hope to endure and survive. Elephant figurines with their trunks curved down represent wisdom and the abiity to overcome obstacles. I would like to think they speak to the even deeper wisdom carried within.....Ancestral and what is even deeper within us that is available to us to draw upon.

The jar's intricate carving is flawless, and the subtle pastel-colored highlights of the soapstone add to its grace even more. Perfectly sized to be practical without sacrificing elegance, it's a beautiful addition to the home.

This box is exquisite! It absolutely exceeded my expectation! It is so unique and the hand painting is lovely and so very delicate! I plan on ordering several more as gifts for birthdays for all of my daughter-in-laws. Not to mention one for my Mother. I purchased it as a gift and I had a hard time not keeping it for myself. Beautiful work!!
