antique elephant figurine set

Two hand-carved elephant figurines, likely intended as decorative pieces. They appear to be made from a light-colored, possibly organic, material with visible grain or striations. Details about the figurines: Subject: Two elephants of different sizes, standing upright with their trunks in a slightly raised position. Material (Likely): Based on the visual appearance and common materials used for such carvings, they could be made from bone, a form of natural material, or potentially a synthetic substitute like resin designed to mimic these materials. While their appearance might suggest ivory, distinguishing genuine ivory from bone or other materials requires closer inspection for specific characteristics like Schreger lines or grain patterns. Style: The carving style is relatively simple and unembellished, focusing on the basic form of the elephants. Purpose: These types of figurines are often collected for decorative purposes, and sometimes sold at auctions or through online marketplaces. Height 2” and 1.5” Leigh 2” and 1.25”
