In some countries the elephant is considered a significant and sacred animal. In others, it is a symbol of wisdom and power. It is believed that a figurine of an elephant in the home invites good luck and fortune.The imagery is hand-painted on both sides of the river stone, approximately 3.5" high, 3.5" wide and 1.5" thick (see the picture with the US quarter). The figurine stands on its own - a perfect shelf enhancer for window ledges, fireplace mantel, bookshelves, etc. The stone, also, can be used as a napkin or paper-weight, book end, weigh-page holder, door stop and other purposes.Care: The acrylic paint is oven-cured and does not come
off easily. However, it is strongly recommended to only gently hand
wash the item, if needed.
