When I saw this online I knew I had to have it.  I completely missed that it's resin so when I pulled it out of the box I was worried but it has some good weight to it and the design is beautiful.  I'm not putting it on a display table only because I'm so afraid of it getting knocked over but it looks great on my fireplace!  It came packaged really securely, so well that I had to tear the box a bit to get it out.  I love my elephant and I'm so glad I got it.
