......do the jungle bop...........
This is a very cool, Art Deco style elephant sculpture in ceramic and from Japan, circa 1930. It has the shape of a bookend, but then has a cork in the bottom, so I am not totally clear what the original purpose was. I do know that he is way cool and seems to be dancing! THe piece is a standing elephant with one "arm" thrown back, one "leg" forward and the trunk up. He is standing before a lattice-type structure. He really seems to be dancing!
The glaze is a pale green, sort of celadon but with more green in it. The clay is white. He has some hand painted detail at the eyes. Very neat!
Hallmarks:
Made in Japan (black ink stamp under glaze)
Size:
5 1/4" x 3 1/2" x 2 1/8"
Condition:
Excellent vintage - glaze crazing, but no chips cracks - there is one glaze rub right at the tip of the trunk
History:
Unknown
