And one very nicely carved and coloured Elephant with great ears and wheels 8" high,, I found these along with 2 leather handled feather fans at 31" long x 20" wide,

To tell the truth I haven't got a clue so all comment or knowlege welcome please :-)
Thanx aghcollect :-)
SE Asia?
Thanx walksoftly, amandajane, aghcollect,;-)
I think they give me a happy feeling!
I'm thinking the elephant is different source to the others, and the rest are maybe Pacific Islands or Melanesia.
Thanx vetraio, racer4four..
these I found with the butanese boots that ive listed , I thought maybe they came from the same area but unsure , they couldv came from different holidays !! Sd
the pull-toy elephant looks like it's from India. The three figures look like they are Indonesian - Bali? Not sure about the gourd pieces - Ashante from Africa?
Thanx Ho2cultcha, I think u could be right , looking into it right now cheers ..sd
Thanx all for the loves;-)
