Legend of the White Elephant Christmas Ornaments with Card

The White Elephant Gift Exchange is a popular and fun Christmas tradition that is said to have originated by the King of Siam. The king gave rare albino elephants to courtiers who had displeased him; his intention was to ruin them over the high cost of caring for the animals. Now, White Elephant Gift Exchanges are silly and competitive, and this adorable ornament is the perfect way to honor that tradition or give to someone who collects elephants. Each 2 3/4" x 3" resin elephant is attached to a 3" x 3 3/4" paper card. Hand Painted, slight variations will occur. © OTC
