Sourced directly from a premium fine art estate, this is an authentic vintage 1970s TonalΓ‘, Mexico hand-painted ceramic and brass-armored elephant figurine. Features a stylized white porcelain body with deep cobalt blue hand-painted enamel ears and a charging upturned trunk, cased beautifully in a heavy sheet-brass armored overlay saddle.
