    Description

    Known as a vyala in northern India (a yali in the South), this mythical creature is depicted with a leonine body and elephant head. It is in a traditional position, with its feet squelching a small elephant; representing the victory of spirit over human weakness. These make interesting and unusual accessories in the western home or garden.
