This hand carved stylized jade elephant is threaded on a waxed string that adjusts easily from 7.5in (19cm) to 15in (38cm) by sliding the thread through knots – no fiddly or insecure clips. The elephant is a potent symbol of Northern Thailand and locally is believed to confer strength, intelligence and longevity. It makes a simple and expressive gift for males or females. Colors range from pale to dark green. State preference
