Vintage Hand-Carved Rosewood Elephant and Lion Sculpture – Bone Inlays – Circa 1960
This vintage Indian wood carving is hand-crafted from solid rosewood and features two elephants in motion with a lion beneath. The piece includes detailed bone inlays for the tusks and teeth, showcasing traditional Indian craftsmanship. It's a striking example of mid-century wildlife decor and a genuine export item from India, likely made around the 1960s, as suggested by the original label still attached to the base.
The sculpture stands securely, displays well from all angles, and remains in good vintage condition with only minor wear and one broken tooth.
Perfect for collectors of Indian handicrafts, fans of safari-themed or animal sculpture decor, or anyone looking to add a unique rosewood carving to a study, office, or display shelf. Also makes a thoughtful gift for those who appreciate traditional hand-carving and exotic wood figures.
