Elephant with Saddle - Maple Wood

A work of refined wood carving that brings the exotic charm of the East into the heart of your Nativity scene. The Elephant, depicted in a static and majestic pose, expresses a serenity and docility typical of the "noble traveler."

Every detail of its equipment is meticulously cared for: from the rich red headdress bordered with gold to the precious tassels adorning the burgundy and olive green saddle. The load, consisting of rolls of cloth, saddlebags, and a pitcher, is hand-painted with natural and vibrant colors (mustard yellow, dusty blue) that create a magnificent contrast with the patinated brown of the body and the ivory of the tusks.

This sculpture is an authentic masterpiece of Val Gardena craftsmanship, entirely carved from precious maple wood, perfect for all available sizes (from 6 to 15 cm). The hand finish, available in colored, natural, or three shades of brown, enhances the skin texture and the richness of the accessories, transforming a simple pack animal into an essential ceremonial and narrative element.
