Goldstone Carved Stone Elephant Animal Rock
These is a cute, hand carved elephant.
Thousands of shiny flecks of gold in a rust orange stone, invented by accident in the 19th century. The story has it that a monk accidentally dropped copper shavings into a vat of molten glass to create this fabulous material. This man-made glass shimmers with every move.
The elephant is the symbol of strength, luck and wisdom. The elephant is also considered a strong symbol of luck - keep a lucky elephant at the door to your house to protect from bad luck and to bring good luck to all who live there.
Elephants have been revered in Thailand for many centuries. In fact they are the national symbol of Thailand. And of course, the symbol of the Republican party here in the U.S.A.!
The elephant is almost 2.5 inches long and more than 1 inch wide by 2 inches tall.
