Svenskt Tenn Elephant Figurine

This product is an iconic brass figurine in the shape of an elephant, a signature motif of the Swedish design house Svenskt Tenn. The brand was founded in 1924 by Estrid Ericson in Stockholm, Sweden. The elephant motif is most famously associated with the textile designs of Josef Frank, who joined the company in the 1930s, though the elephant has appeared in various forms including brass figurines and bottle openers.

Manufacturing of Svenskt Tenn's brass items typically takes place in Sweden, often at specialized foundries such as Humstorp Keramik or other local craftsmen, maintaining a tradition of high-quality Swedish handicraft. The brand continues to be owned by the Beijer Foundation, which ensures the company's longevity and heritage are preserved, with all profits going to research and cultural preservation.
