Pair of Carved Green Stone Elephant Figurines

This item consists of a pair of carved elephant figurines, likely intended as decorative objects. Each elephant is distinct but shares a similar overall design and material. They appear to be crafted from a light green, translucent stone, possibly jade, serpentine, or a soapstone variant, exhibiting natural variations in color and translucency characteristic of such minerals. The color is a pale, cool green with some lighter, almost white, inclusions and darker veins or mottling visible within the material. The surface of the carvings has a smooth, polished finish, reflecting light gently. Each elephant is depicted with its trunk raised, a traditional symbol of good luck or prosperity. Their bodies are rounded and somewhat stylized, with rudimentary carving indicating ears, eyes (though not finely detailed), and legs. The overall construction suggests hand-carving due to the slight differences between the two figures and the organic, somewhat uneven lines. There are no readily visible prominent condition issues such as chips, cracks, or significant abrasions from the provided image, indicating good to very good condition. There are no discernible maker's marks, signatures, or stamps evident in the visible areas. The style suggests a modern decorative item, possibly Asian-inspired, with an estimated age likely within the last 50 years. The craftsmanship appears to be of a reasonable quality for decorative stone carvings, with attention paid to the general form and polishing, though not exhibiting highly intricate detail that would suggest master-level artistry.
