We were impressed by the quality of this planter, it really looks like it's made from stone, although it's actually a lighter, durable polyresin. We just can't help imagining this one in the home library of a world traveler, put high on a bookcase with a cascading plant draped over the edge and tumbling down the shelves. Or you can put it on a side table and give it something upright and flowering to carry. It also can be used outdoors and makes the perfect whimsical centerpiece on a patio table. We call this planter "Good Fortune" because the elephant has its trunk up. Depictions of elephants with their trunks up are meant to bring good luck. 18"Hx10"Wx14"L.
