In 1940 Erich Oehme created the figurine "Elephant, white". The 19 cm tall sculpture joins the lively and varied figurine world of the MEISSEN® porcelain manufactory. Developed with love and dedication to the craft, the fantastic figure captivates with numerous details, which testify to the highest quality standards and years of experience.
Animal figures have a long tradition in the porcelain manufactory MEISSEN®. Even August the Strong, inspired by the diverse animal world, commissioned one or the other figure to decorate his court. Whether in pure white or naturalistically hand-painted - each sculpture is an expression of masterful craftsmanship.
Oehme, who is especially known for his detailed craftsmanship in the field of animal sculptures, thus contributes to the great variety of the MEISSEN® figurine world. Humorous, playful and expressive, the sculpture "Elephant, white" made of MEISSEN® porcelain is at the same time a piece of cultural history.
