You will find natural pontil marks (the "belly button" of hand-blown glass) at the base/tail, confirming they were crafted by hand rather than in a mold.     ​Matching Set: This listing includes two (2) elephants and two (2) original beveled mirror display bases, which enhance the reflection of the gold interiors.      ​ Measurements: ​Height: Approximately 7 inches (18 cm) ​Width: Approximately 3.5 inches at the widest point      ​Condition: Both figurines are in excellent vintage condition with no cracks or major repairs.
