Mid-20th Century Hand-Carved African Elephant Sculpture in Solid Ebony Wood
Hand-carved African elephant sculpture, crafted from dense solid ebony wood, renowned for its rich, deep hue and natural sheen.
This mid-20th-century piece captures the power and majesty of the African elephant.
Handcrafted carved wooden elephant, likely an African Elephant due to the large ears.
It appears to be made from a dark wood, possibly ebony, which is a popular material for such carvings.
Ebony is a dense and valuable wood, making these carvings desirable for collectors.

Its smooth polish and heavy weight reflect the high quality of the ebony used—a wood celebrated not only for its beauty but also for its durability and rarity.
This piece serves as both a decorative object and a cultural artifact, ideal for collectors of African art, lovers of wildlife sculptures, or those seeking a unique focal point for an interior space.
