This really is a beautiful item. Hand carved from Suar wood with the utmost attention to detail. The carving on each elephant features a big floral pattern and swirls galore. Because this item has been handmade no two are ever identical. They feature all of the natural elements of the wood which gives them a huge amount of character. Suar wood, (also locally known as "Rain Tree"), is a fast-growing durable hardwood. It is traditionally carved into decorative shapes; particularly animal figures. Suar can be easily polished to a high sheen but takes great skill to carve, due to its very hard interlocking grain. Dimensions: H24xW16xD10cm
