Elephants never forget! The elephant was the first piece designed by Mr Omersa when he took over the art of making leather animals from "Old Bill", circa 1959.
The Large leather elephant is a statement piece, with lovely big ears and ivory leather tusks. It is too tall to be used as a footstool with the height to the top of the back at approximately 55cms. Wire is sewn into the edges of the ears to provide support and keep them flapping.
- Constructed out of top grain “unfinished” cowhide leather which will develop natural scuff marks reflecting the wear and tear of life.
- Each piece is hand stained a deep mahogany brown which is then waxed and polished.
- Due to the nature of cowhide and its hand-built internal structure, each piece is never the same, giving every piece a unique expression and shape
- Made to order exclusively for Hunt
NB: Each piece is made to order, please allow 8 weeks for delivery.
