Hand-Painted Metal and Capiz Elephant Wall Art

Fans of wildlife and unique art will love this Hand-Painted Metal and Capiz Elephant Wall Art. According to feng shui, an elephant with its trunk raised will shower good luck to those around it and is a symbol for intelligence, curiosity, kindness and strength.

Handcrafted by Philippine artisans, the basic shape of this elephant is crafted from tin that is then powder-coated with a black finish. They the apply layers of natural capiz – the shell of the Windowpane Oyster – to add texture and shine. Finally, they hand paint the body in a colorful pattern influenced by designs from different eastern cultures.

Due to it being a natural material, the natural colors of the capiz come through as tans and browns underneath the paint. For indoor or outdoor display.
