CloseLot Description

Preview image

This beautiful elephant named In Your Trunk (Turn The Bass Up) was created by Ashwan.

Artist's Inspiration: "Urban graphics, Asian and European patterns, lyrical (acoustic) patterns"

In today’s crowded world there’s simply not enough room for the Asian elephant. Thank you for joining Elephant Family's campaign to turn this around – we’re reconnecting their forests and saving their jungle homes.

This elephant was kindly sponsored by Bluewolf.

 

Additional Information

Each elephant sculpture is made from fibreglass, with a sturdy steel structure within the legs, and weighs approximately 70kg.

Standing elephant dimensions (without plinth): 148 cm (H) x 165 cm (L) x 75 cm (W)

Sitting elephant dimensions (without plinth): 145 cm (H) x 180 cm (L) x 120 cm (W)

At Elephant Family's discretion, sponsors can buy their elephant at the current average selling price of £7,000 (based on previous Elephant Parade auctions). This process will remove the elephant from the online and live auctions.
