Working with Novica for over 20 years, the Sierra Family of Jalisco, Mexico have grown as artisans, developing and marketing a wide variety of new products in marble, onyx and obsidian. This elephant folk sculpture has a somewhat abstract design which shows the family's adaptability in both themes and style in working with their traditional materials.
You can find our marble elephant sculpture 'Tapatio Elephant' by Sierra Family in categories such as Rustic Sculpture and Marble Sculpture. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
