Jenni, So adorable! That baby elephant is too cute! Great find!
This is a lovely brooch, I adore the colour of them both! Black, white and silver are great monochrome colours and you rarely see them on an elephant...they're almost art deco?!
Really appreciate the kind love everyone

Thank you Maureen for the wonderful compliments, I think that baby is a cutie too! I've had this for awhile & always loved the design, then when scanning around google I saw the same exact vintage design in 14K gold by Cartier being sold for $3K!! They had also made this in all diamonds, can imagine what that cost - well I am quite happy with my costume piece thank you very much!
Lauren many thanks for the fantastic compliments and yes you are right, it does have the appearance of art deco with the coloring, it reminds me of another animal brooch I have of a greyhound dog in the deco style. Marvelous perception as always!
Lovely heffalumps Jenni, they would be wonderful on a coloured top or dress.
Thanx Karen for the super compliment & love, you're right the neutral tones of these elephants would look great on a colorful outfit - that is, if I could go out anywhere right now with all the mandates (it has to end soon, hubby & I already have cabin fever lol!)
Many thanks for the love
