This is a rare and eye catching elephant which I believe dates back to the 1920s / 1930s? I have no idea of the maker, possibly Schuco? Either that or its made in Japan? It has a metal body covered in a grey time worn velvet. He has metal tusks and glass eyes. He is a small size at approx 6 inches across. This wonderful antique elephant has been very well used and well loved as expected from its age. It has been sat in storage for a while and so will benefit from a good clean up and some TLC. It does show obvious signs of general wear / dirt / discolouration / marks / small holes / frays. There is no key, so it is untested. Please see the close up pictures for a full condition report. This has a lovely time worn character, with original patina. Local collections are also available from the Melksham area of Wiltshire (cash on collection please). Please note that I can not guarantee that any of my items come from a smoke or pet free home.
