    Hello! Yes I have been on a bit of a CW break. Just busy and well, busy.
    I have not stopped hunting and here is a cool one.

    I believe he is bronze, but not positive.
    I believe his tusks were cut off and ivory.

    I think he is older...20s?

    Let me know your thoughts. Let me know if you can cipher those initials.

    Unsolved Mystery

    Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

      Hello! Found at a SArmy on half price color! They were pulling it to "recycle". This SArmy is moving so it's really weird there now. Think they are initials. Has that quality feel. It's a nice piece.

      Hahaha! I've had many thrift adventures. Lots to share. On a weekend away to see some bands and hang with hubby.

      Good find AR.........says AR....LOL
    8. kyratango kyratango, 10 years ago
      Nice find!
      The initials are L F, I found a sculptor named Louis Fontinelle (Google images Louis Fontinelle bronze elephant)
      But your's seems rather beeing cold painted spelter, as on first pic you can see a grey metal under the worn finish.
      It is old!

      Kyratango, I actually noticed that when I posted. Not as apparent in real life. Going to check out that lead now! Thanks!

      AR, your funny.

      Happy New Yew AmberRose. Thanks for all your help. The Elephants great, love that he's on a ball :)

      Nice. I was going to ask about the silver color on it's head. I looks more like solder, as it something was attached there, than a worn spot.
      You can file a spot on the bottom to see if it's plated or not.
