-Elephant heads on all 4 sides with a fantastic molded pattern, looking like the elephant's wrinkled skin.
-Excellent condition/no damage as seen in the pictures. Maybe a couple of VERY minor scratches (if any) on bottom as can be expected but pad feet prevented most if not all of that. Still retains the plastic sticker label near rim.
-Measures approx. 13" tall by 8 1/2" across and HEAVY. This is a MASSIVE piece.
-Identical ...one sold at Christie's Auction House lot 369 in Feb 2012 for $2375. (Add tax and 25% buyer's premium and you are around $3000)
-There is another for sale at the Galerie Carre Rouge in Europe for 2800 Euros (Roughly $3160.00 dollars)
-Signed on bottom Lalique France and what looks like D073
-Packed to be nearly bomb proof with special heavy duty tubular bubble wrap and thick foam on all 4 sides, any savage handler couldn't damage it...see the picture.
-Photos were taken outdoors in sunlight to show everything
-This one surely makes a statement and is VERY RARELY SEEN.
eBay will collect mandatory state sales tax starting November so...
Please see the pictures and my feedback, they should tell the story.
