1960s French Ceramic Elephant

About the Item

A ceramic decoration from 1960s France in the shape of an elephant. A saddle seat and blanket are glazed with pale blue and ochre, the elephant’s skin painted creamy off-white and laced with lines of the earth tone clay body; the assortment of delicate patterns — reflecting Chinese and Arabic influences — suggest the romance of the Silk Road. The elephant stands patiently, trunk raised for a parting remark, eyes gleaming, almost ready to embark.
