    I purchased this in the spring of 1992 at a stop at a local artisan shop during a trip throughout Thailand while working on a television show.
    It has been in climate controlled dark storage facility for 29 years.
    It has always been in a smoke-free and odor-free environment.
    Some surface dirt which I decided to leave as is because it should be professionally handled and cleaned.
    No cracks although there are some imperfections within it as expected as this was hand sculpted.
    Each of the glass pieces have been glued by hand and placed by the artist.
    Some tarnish and surface wear.
    The two simulated ivory tusks are intact and secure.
    The two black horns (not sure what they are made from) have been placed into sockets and then squeezed into position along with glue.
    Rare one-of-a-kind piece of incredibly detailed artistry
