This small metal figurine resembles the decorative scale weights used throughout the Qing dynasty to parcel out spices, opium, or other lightweight goods on tabletop balances. The petite figure is cast in the form of a saddled elephant, a symbol of strength and bearer of good fortune. Likely intended as a decorative keepsake, the tiny elephant makes for a charming gift or token of strength.

Andrea Goldman | Andrea Goldman Design

“Over the years, I’ve incorporated many pieces from PAGODA RED into my designs. Not only can they balance new furnishings (and often new construction) by feeling more established, but the pieces emanate a sense of rich history, often leaving you wondering where they were in a previous life. These beautiful pieces carefully hand-selected by the team at PAGODA RED, coupled with their unbelievable customer service, make them a must-have for any home.”
