I bought a pair of these elephants today signed what looks like Hoffmann, I was not quite sure of the initial to the name which looks like an H, but on close inspection could it be a J for Josef Hoffmann, when I look closely it does look like a J but with the extra loop before Hoffmann, I am sure I saw a Hoffmann Elephant once sell at an auction. The elephant weighs 856 gm amd measures 5.5" or 14cm in length and 4" or 9 cm in height
Having got the elephants home and had time to look at them I believe they may have been from a pair of bookends ? as they definitely look like they would have fitted into something, maybe the bases had suffered some damage
many thanks for any help Roy
