    Beautiful and large piece, this generous double inkwell in exotic wood (rosewood) from the 1930s, well carved with a robust elephant trumpeting in the air between two tree trunks with beautiful trompe l'oeil work cut from which the stump and its sculpted cap with a ball grip serve to hide the two glass buckets. The large plate with its curved, bark-like pencil case; the elephant, very expressive, has his trunk in the air, he is stationary and is kind, not at all angry, he has expressive eyes and beautiful tusks in ivory lacquered wood. The same quality bark-style blotting pad can be handled with a large round grip, all in a chosen type of wood; well sculpted, this generous and decorative desk set will take you on a journey to the depths of the Savanna, don't forget your colonial helmet. All in good condition
