The well-polished white jade is deftly carved as a pendant in the form of a massive elephant standing four-square, dressed with a tasselled saddlecloth draped across its back, supporting a potted plant, its head turned to the left and its trunk curling up to touch its tusks, its eyes, ears and wrinkled skin are well-defined. The elephant is a pun for the word "sign" (xiang) from the Chinese proverb "tai ping jing xiang", meaning peace in the land.
