Precious piece and worried about arriving safe and sound. Relieved packaging was so secure took me removal of several layers of wrapping to get to box! Superb crafting of many elephants (my favorite creature) and love round design and substantial weight and size. Only disappointment is not off-white or ecru color as shown online, but a much darker brown or grayish shade. Nevertheless, love his work. Wish Gulam could bring back dyed/colored soapstone that he used to craft years ago. I have one of his pieces of a soapstone multi-colored elephant small box which I truly treasure.

I was looking for a unique gift to give to a family member when I saw this soapstone box. It was perfect. It was actually larger than I expected, and the carving was beautifully done.

Exquisite artwork. Impressive alabaster carving, and this is now one of my most prized treasure! Thank you Sir Rasool, nothing but my highest respect and appreciation for the wonderful jali piece! And kudos too to the Novica team, I was initially worried about if this will arrive damaged but it was packed so well, it arrived whole and undamaged.
