An ancient Chinese legend tells the tale of forbidden love. Despite being promised to a powerful Duke, a young maiden runs off with her true love, a humble clerk. Angered by the betrayal, the Duke seeks revenge. But before the young lovers can be captured, the gods bestow fortune on the couple, turning them into a pair of doves who fly away and spend eternity together. Now a symbol of this ancient love story can be yours with the Sparkling Blue Willow Elephant Figurine, a first-ever available in a limited edition only from The Hamilton Collection. Inspired by the classic style of Blue Willow china, this handcrafted, hand-painted elephant figurine gloriously celebrates the promise of true love.

Every magnificent detail replicates the timeless colours and patterns of this cherished china pattern. Collectors will admire the smooth, curved lines of the elephant's upturned trunk, a universal sign of good fortune. Intricate Blue Willow designs adorn her graceful ears and legs, and the elephant's opulent headpiece and coverlet sparkle with 37 genuine Swarovski® crystals, 35 hand-applied faux gems and sculptured pearls. Master Artists employ richly-hued pearlescent and metallic paints to beautifully enhance this elephant collectible, one brushstroke at a time. The bright cobalt-blue and white colours are finished with a high gloss porcelain-like glaze that mirrors the lustrous look of the very china that inspired its creation.
