    Elephants walk in grace!

    The work involved in making this has to come from the heart. I'm so grateful to the family who does this work. I was able to gift this to a dear friend with a soft spot for elephants. It's a beautiful work of art.

    Mr. Rasool's decorative workmanship is so exquisite! His work is so finely carved and the elephants on his soapstone jars are very delicately etched. Thank you, Mr. Rasool.
