Such a beautifully made piece.
This is for my daughter who lost her firstborn child when he was 5 days old. He would now be 15 months old if he had lived. My daughter also recently had a little girl who was born on April 1st. So I wanted to give her a Mothers Day gift that would include both of her children. And this piece is perfect for the ages of the children and of course for how beautiful and how well it is made. I know my daughter will love it when I give it to her on 5-12-2019. The meaning behind it will forever be cherished. Thank you Made Wirata for this exquisite piece that was so perfectly made and so wonderfully wrapped. I love it, thank you!!!
Beautiful, delightfu!, and meaningful!
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.
