finely carved standing foursquare with its furled ears and curved tusks naturalistically depicted, caparisoned with an elaborate long tasselled saddle rug woven with a shou character on each side, flanked by two playful small boys clambering on the elephant, the smoothly finished stone of an even white colour with russet inclusions
Condition
The edge of the saddle has been polished and there is some russet stained fissures in the stone, but otherwise the elephant carving is in overall good condition.

本品意象祥瑞，「騎象」與「吉祥」諧音，故童子騎象寓意福祿康寧，童子手持樂器，亦寓喜慶。
