Description
A delightful elephant ballerina brooch by E.Wolfe & Co. 2021, the finely modelled elephant in 18ct yellow gold with semi-matte finely textured finish wearing a diamond set tutu and depicted leaping through the air with arms thrown wide, clutching a rose in one hand, the eyes set with sapphire cabochons and with single pin brooch fitting to the reverse. This utterly charming little brooch is full of personality and vigour and is imbued with a real sense of movement, from the rippling tutu to the trunk held aloft and the flapping ears this is an elephant having great fun! Reminiscent of the dancing elephants in Walt Disney’s Fantasia, it is a fun and whimsical jewel that is bound to prove a talking point whenever it is worn.
