“They say somewhere in Africa the elephants have a secret grave where they go to lie down, unburden their grey wrinkled bodies, and soar away, light spirits at the end.” – Robert R. McCammon, Boy’s Life
Vintage Carved African Wooden Elephant – $75
Elephants are one of the most majestic creatures to roam the earth. Maybe it’s how they walk with grace while being the largest land mammal in modern history, or the fact that babies follow behind their mamas holding onto their tail with their tiny trunks. We have found elephants over the years here and there, but these vintage pachyderms were so unique, it seemed to be kismet as we came across these all within the same month while searching for the next great find.
