    This one came all the way from Canada! Silver molded in the form of a reclining elephant.

    You can see the slight mold marks on the sides, and there is a stamp on the bottom. I don't know what it says, but am working on finding out. ;)

      Still Chinese in origin?

      Hi racer4four - that's a good question. It could very well be Tibetan. I still need to do a lot of research on this one so I don't know yet.
