Lac Elephant Set of 4

Lac Elephant Set of 4 – Vibrant Multicolour Lacquer Finish, Graduating Sizes 8cm to 4cm

Lac work is one of Rajasthan's oldest decorative crafts — a technique where natural lac resin is applied in layers to create a smooth, richly coloured surface with a distinctive sheen. This set of four lac elephants uses that tradition to produce a group of figurines that are noticeably more vibrant and glossy than painted wood or paper mache alternatives. The four sizes — 8cm, 6.5cm, 5cm, and 4cm — step down in a clean progression, making them ideal for a tiered shelf arrangement or a clustered display on a coffee table or mantel.

Lac Craft – What Makes the Finish Different

Unlike hand-painted wood where colour sits on the surface, lac work builds up colour through layered resin application, resulting in a harder, more durable finish that resists chipping better than standard paint. The multicolour finish on this set uses the traditional Rajasthani lac palette — bright, saturated tones that catch light differently from matte or enamel finishes. The smallest elephant at 4cm is a particularly compact piece, making this set one of the few in the collection that includes a truly miniature-scale figurine alongside larger display sizes.
