Description
A collection of elephant figurines and assorted novelty items produced in various styles and materials. The lot features several hand-carved wooden elephant figurines ranging from dark ebony-coloured finishes to polished natural wood grains, including several stylised figures with upturned trunks. Also included is a pink glazed ceramic reclining elephant money box and a flat ceramic wall plaque in blue and green. The assortment contains two red translucent plastic novelty items: a small stylised elephant-shaped photo frame and an analog desk clock. Additional items in the group comprise a controlled bubble glass paperweight, a green reptilian-textured dinosaur figure, and various small plastic components in bags. The collection is presented with a large oval dark wood-framed mirror and a blue-bordered vertical mirror. A blue and white adhesive label on the ceramic plaque reads 191 Plymouth, and a white rectangular label on the pink figure reads 5702C.
