Description: Discover the charm of this figurine, a captivating 2-inch hand-carved soapstone portrayal of a majestic mother elephant with her baby nestled inside. In some societies, the elephant is a symbol of Good Luck and money. Crafted in India, this piece beautifully blends the rich cultural heritage of African and Indian art. Its unique provenance adds to its appeal, making it a must-have for collectors seeking distinctive artworks. The exquisite craftsmanship and intricate details make this figurine a perfect addition to any collection focused on African or Indian-inspired art. This all-natural soapstone sculpture was meticulously hand-carved by skilled artisans in Agra, a city celebrated for exquisite craftsmanship, particularly stone carving and inlay work. These artistic traditions have been passed down through generations since the ancient Mughal era. The stunning intricacy of the carvings explains why these pieces are so highly prized. The sculpture features a detailed mother elephant with a solid stone baby inside. It exemplifies traditional Indian jali work, an art form characterized by intricate lattice designs. The majestic pose of the elephant is also noteworthy. The sculpture is carved from a single block of stone, and given the precision required, a single mistake can require an entirely new piece. Each sculpture is handmade, ensuring that no two are ever alike. **Dimensions:**- Weight: 1.5 ounces- Length: 2 inches- Width: 1 inch- Height: 1.5 inches
