Thank you! The item up in the top right is a WWI tank projectile. I

6guns, they are cast from something like plaster. No markings on the bottoms. My wife tells me she lost a bid on another pair just like them a year ago and has been watching for another set to show up. She specifically wanted African elephants. They are very special as is my wife.

Rey, as said above, they are cast of something like plaster. I knew someone someone like your co-worker years ago. She had a vast collection of elephants. She was the daughter of the founder of Jay's potato chips. Her home/estate was called Elephant Walk and she and her husband owned a restaurant called The Ivory Bistro


Thanks for the additional info, Brad! Very interesting. I have a particular interest in African and Asian art and was fortunate to collect a fair amount in my travels.
