(pair) Chinese bone tiled standing elephants, each with upturned trunk and elaborate gilt metal costume with multi-color cabochons and cloisonne enamel, some overall small losses of cabochons and dangles, approx 15"h, 19"w, 7.5"d, 22lbs total
3.9.25-In my opinion regarding LOT: 3487 – the pair stand sturdy with tusks appearing securely attached, the tiled pieces show some yellowing and overall discoloration, I further note some small losses/roughness to the edges, as commensurate with the vintage age of the pieces, the metal costume displays some overall loss of the applied colored cabochons, there are a few dangles missing throughout, and bending to the saddle fringe, I note a small separation/break to corner top of one saddle at front
