Figurine - Vintage Elefanten - Shahi Sawaari & Kandyan...

For sale is a charming lot of a total of 14 artistically designed elephant figures made of solid wood. The collectibles originate from the 1970s and are an authentic attic find from a family estate. Note on categorization: According to my own research, the figures originate from the 1970s and can be attributed to traditional Asian handicraft. Each piece is a handmade unique item with fine ornaments, floral patterns and dot painting (Dot-Art). The set combines two classic styles: • Shahi Sawaari style: figures with painted, magnificent saddle blankets, modeled after the royal procession elephants from India (Rajasthan). • Kandyan / Singhalese folk art: elephants with fine dot and flower patterns, typical of traditional craftsmanship from Sri Lanka. Two of the natural brown elephants also perch on ornate, integrated pedestals and showcase a detailed relief structure. Condition: The colors are exceptionally beautiful, vivid and fresh. The wood and the lacquer show only minimal, natural signs of aging. Please view the photos carefully; they depict the condition in detail and are an essential part of the description.
