"My mom was very happy!!"
My mom collects elephants so we had to get these for her. The paint work is very lovely and vibrant. The tusks come in a separate little bag and you simply attach them once you get your package. They are well made but light weight so be careful of placement in your house (maybe away from a breezy window or little curious hands).

"Beautiful workmanship"
Unfortunately it is too small for the purpose I had envisioned. I will use it for a different purpose and it will continue to be loved and will sit among my other favorite items on display.
