Oriental elephant crafted in porcelain, a symbol of wisdom and protection. Hand-carved, hand-decorated, and hand-painted with over 20 different colors.
They say that when an elephant raises its trunk toward the sky, it brings good fortune. In Eastern cultures, it also symbolizes wisdom, gentle strength, and protection. This is the spirit behind Oriens Elephant, a High Porcelain creation that honors this sacred animal, crafted with the highest level of detail.
Unlike their African relatives, Eastern elephants have smaller ears, a distinctive trait that reveals their origin. This piece stands in a calm and poised position, with its trunk lifted in an auspicious gesture and its feet firmly grounded, conveying balance and presence. Its body is draped in detailed mantles, hand-decorated with floral engravings, scalloped edges, and a chosen color palette designed to enhance every detail.
The colorwork deserves special mention: 20 different shades are applied by expert hands with precision, enriching every surface with unique nuances. Shades of orange, cobalt blue, emerald green, lavender, and rose blend with golden lusters and iridescent finishes, adding visual richness. Highlights include orange-tinted porcelain tassels and garlands with golden bells hanging from the elephant’s neck and flanks, evoking the festive and ceremonial processions of South Asia. On its legs, delicate floral engravings continue the ornamental language, reinforcing a sense of movement and harmony.
A creation that merges symbolism, craftsmanship and color to transform any space into one filled with meaning.
