Description
This charming "family" of four graduated elephants is the epitome of Hollywood Regency playfulness and Palm Beach sophistication. For this set, Turtle and Crane has moved away from our signature painted finishes to honor the warmth and brilliance of the original material. Each piece has been meticulously hand-polished to a "mirror-gloss" finish, transforming these vintage heavy-cast brass figures into luminous jewelry for your home.
In the tradition of stylized Mid-Century design, these elephants feature the iconic bulbous, "pudgy" silhouette that adds a touch of whimsical maximalism to any bookshelf or entry console. Most importantly, each member of this family features a raised trunk, a universal symbol of prosperity, strength, and the "showering" of good luck upon the home. Whether styled in a tight cluster or marching across a mantel, they offer a radiant, golden focal point that captures and refracts light beautifully. approx. measurements:
