This hardwood-carved elephant sculpture is truly one-of-a-kind. Due to the handmade nature of the carving process and the natural variations in the wood grain, no two sculptures are exactly alike. This uniqueness adds to the charm and authenticity of each piece, ensuring that you own a truly special work of art that cannot be replicated. It's a true testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of Africa. Meticulously hand-carved, this sculpture encapsulates the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted traditions of the continent. The elephant is portrayed in a powerful pose, trumpeting loudly with its trunk. The loud, trumpet-like call of an elephant is called "baroo". The word "trumpet" is also used to describe this sound. Elephants trumpet when they are highly stimulated, such as when they are excited, lost, angry, playful, or surprised.
