Elephant Shakers #160H: 1942
The 160H elephants are one of the most desired Frankoma shaker pairs. They may not be as cute as the #166H bulls, but they are more difficult to find. This is a circus style pose which Frankoma also made in a miniature animal shape with only very slight modifications. The miniature animal version comes in two sizes but with one exception the shaker sets all seem to be the same size and design.
The elephants are sturdy and difficult to damage. These are usually found in prairie green, but the 1942 only glazes are also available—just be ready to part with a goodly portion of you life’s savings! They should be available in patina (prairie green after 1944), old gold (desert gold after 1944,) early matte yellow, Osage brown, fawn brown, blue-grey jade (maybe), turquoise, onyx black, ivory, white sand, silver sage, royal blue, dusty rose, Indian blue (peacock blue after 1944), rosetone (desert rose), sky blue, and early matte yellow.
