Charming Homemade Rose Colored Velvet Stuffed Elephant (?) AAconglo these clearly are red dyedJust a charmer, who, to my eye, looks like an elephantno trunk per se, but the smush of the front of his face suggests one. Rose colored velvet with soft stuffing, black button eyes, very empathetic and very squeezable. Id guess 1920s 30s or so and in very good condition, with one button eye perhaps reinforced at some point and one light surface scratch to the velvet down his front as documented minor. All seams tightly held, clean and odor free. 16 3
