Carved Animal Group Sculpture on Base

This appears to be a decorative sculpture featuring a dynamic scene of elephants and big cats, possibly lions, carved and mounted on a dark, naturalistic base. The figures themselves are carved from a light-colored material, likely resin or a cast synthetic ivory, given the uniform, creamy white color and lack of visible growth lines characteristic of genuine ivory. Some of the big cat figures exhibit light blue or gray coloration, indicating selective pigmentation or patination on their bodies, possibly to highlight markings. The craftsmanship in the animal figures is detailed, showing musculature, facial features, and fur textures. There are at least three elephants and several big cats depicted in various poses, suggesting a narrative of interaction or conflict. The elephants have tusks and trunks, and the big cats are shown in active, predatory or defensive stances. The base is an irregular, organic shape, likely intended to mimic a natural landscape feature such as a rock or log, rendered in a dark brown, possibly resin or wood composite, with a glossy finish. It serves as a stable platform for the figures. The overall condition appears good with no obvious signs of significant damage, cracks, or repairs from the visible angles. The consistent coloration across figures suggests a manufactured item rather than individually hand-carved pieces from natural material. The style reflects a more contemporary decorative art piece rather than an ancient artifact, and the "Ming Dynasty statue" context provided seems inconsistent with the visual evidence presented in the image. It is designed as a standalone display item.
