Description: Please note - this is a no returns listing so please ask any questions you may have before purchasing - thanks! I do my best to accurately describe all of the items I list. I also do some research when I don't know a whole lot about an item so that I can bring you information about it. Some of our items are pre-owned, vintage, or antique and so may show signs of previous wear or age. We strive to try to take as accurate images as possible. Some of these images are extremely close up and so may show reflections or imperfections that would otherwise only be seen with magnification. Our adult children do not want this beautiful elephant, so we have made the decision to sell it and some other items we purchased while living in The Philippines. This has been in our family since 1986 when we were living/working on the southern tip the Island of Mindanao in a small town called Polomolok. We would travel 1 hour to the town of General Santos City-it is the Southern most city in The Philippines, to shop for food and collectibles like this one. This beautiful BRASS ELEPHANT was made by what they call 'the lost wax method' as described on one of the cards we still have and shown in the last two photos. The original card is NOT included in the sale, it is just pictured to show you. We can attach a copy of the card and send it to you via eBay messaging system so you can print it should you so desire. The 'Lost Wax Method' is where each item is cast individually and once cast, the mold is broken during the process, thus no two are ever 'exactly alike'! The elephant measures approximately 16" long and 13 1/2" tall at the elephants trunk and about 9 1/2" tall at the elephants back. It is very intricately etched/engraved.. Please look closely at all the photos and if you have any questions on any of them message us and we will be happy to answer your question. We are the original/only owners. It sat on the top of a large curio cabinet since 1986 while residing in The Philippines, then in California and spent its final years on display on the top of the curio cabinet in Colorado! It has had a wonderful life!! I never used anything to clean it i.e. brass cleaner or chemicals…the only thing I have done to it is 'dust it'! The Elephant weighs approximately 7.9 pounds ESTIMATED DELIVERY DATE 📆⏱️ Please note - the ‘estimated delivery date’ that ‘Ebay Provides You’ is just that, an ‘estimate’. Depending on your location to Colorado, you may receive your order sooner or later, we truly can not control that. Factors like weather, high carrier traffic, and the performance of shipping carriers are outside of our control. Thank you for understanding this!
