We offer a remarkable estate find in a Cybis-style VERY RARE huge Marwal Circus Elephant in amazing, excellent condition. The elephant is about 28" long x17.5" tall x 11"wide and weighs a whopping 30#! His color remains vivid. He has no chips or cracks in his composition which is chalkware plaster; he is one sturdy elephant! The only flaw that we observed are a few very small specks of paint loss as noted in photo 10. He is adorned with the customary lavish headpiece and blanket covering, both sporting tassels and other accouterments as typically seen on circus elephants. He has dreamy eyes and saggy baggy skin! The detail of this figurine is really extraordinary! Ringling Brothers removed the signature elephants from their acts in 2016, but with this beauty, you can have your very own Circus Elephant! The elephant with an upward pointed trunk is supposed to dispense energy, luck, prosperity and kindness. Who of us couldn't use those attributes in this day and age?Marwal Industries, Inc.was known for its chalkware sculptures and was based out of Miami, FL from the 1940s to the 1960s, now being defunct. Our elephant has the incised stamped Marwal logo on its underside. Our circus elephant will bring you and your guests sheer delight! He will be shipped with USPS Retail Ground or is available for pick up north of the Twin Cities in Pine City, MN (possible to meet within reason). Thank you for looking, now bring on the circus!
