This is a desktop sized version of the Eames Elephant that was designed by Charles & Ray Eames in 1945.

Only two prototypes were made, both of which were displayed at the New York Museumof Modern Art in 1945-46. Today the normal sized version is made of strong polypropylene with a matt surface finish; however this version pays tribute to the original plywood version that never made it to mass production.
