Gift Idea For The Elephant Lover
Elephant Necklace In Gift Box |
I also wanted for it to be sterling silver so that it would last for years to come and not tarnish with wear. Little girls can be rough on jewelry; so I wanted something of value.
The last item on my list of "it must haves" was that the trunk had to be up on the elephant. We will talk more about the reason for that choice in a minute.
The image above looks large but that is so that you can see the detail of the elephant. The actual size is small and very delicate looking. It will not be too large for her small frame and as she grows it will remain quite feminine looking as she wears it.
Why did I want the trunk up on the elephant? Many say that an elephant with its trunk up will bring good fortune or good luck to people. Some might even say that if the trunk is down it will bring bad luck. That being said, I did find that some people believe the opposite and that an elephant with its trunk down allows good fortune to flow through easily. I am going with the trunk up theory because it makes more sense to me and besides the elephant looks happier and less menacing in my humble opinion.

One of the features that sold me on this particular choice was the added little bling. It looks like the pachyderm is wearing a necklace of diamonds. Of course they are not real diamonds but it does give the illusion of them. She is very much a little girl who loves fancy and shiny things! I think she will be delighted when she opens the gift on Christmas morning. I can already hear her saying, "Grandma will you help me put it on?"
Although, I picked this gift for a child; it is a nice gift idea for a girl of any age who happens to love elephants. It is very nicely made and would look great with casual wear or dressy attire.
What a cute idea, I agree with the trunk up! I like it better that way. Your granddaughter is going to love this necklace.
ReplyDeleteAnother great gift choice for one lucky little 5-year-old! I love the elephant and definitely agree with the trunk up. Like the bling, too!
ReplyDeleteOh, Bev! That necklace is beautiful!!! I know your granddaughter will love it. I agree with you about the truck being up too. It does make the elephants look like they are smiling.
ReplyDeleteA lovely choice for your little granddaughter who loves elephants. She will love this pretty elephant necklace, Bev. What a fun, elephant-themed Christmas she will have. I've also put together a 'themed' Christmas for my two youngest grandsons this year ~ everything I sent them is TMNT related. :)
