Bali jewelry, named for the island where it is created, is known for its unique yet distinctive craftsmanship. Each piece of Bali jewelry is an original work of art handmade in the traditional Bali ways, using handheld tools. This enchanting Bali pendant is no exception. This solid sterling silver elephant pendant is awesome! The artistically crafted elephant-shaped pendant features fascinating scroll metalwork all over the elephant's body and large bail. The pendant measures approximately 1.25 inches from side to side and from the top of the scrollwork bail to the base of the elephant. There is a lot of silver in the pendant and it (and the chain) weighs 11 grams on the scale. Included with the pendent is a quality Italian-made cable chain that is 20 inches in length. 

 
Elephants are a sacred symbol in Hindu and Buddhist religions, representing loyalty, power, wisdom, and fertility. Elephants are associated with water and rainfalls, and the shape, size, and color of their bodies are said to be symbols of clouds.
