help on wording of my mother's elephant necklace and bracelet

Going to list this necklace and bracelet.  clasp marked 12K gold filled.  It was my mother's and I think a gift from her brother-in-law.  He traveled.  The elephants are not ivory but stone.  They stay cold in my hand.  So late 50s or early 60s.  googled elephant jewelry and also looked at elephant jewelry on ebay - nothing like this.  There are thousands of elephant jewelry on ebay and don't want this  listing to get lost.  Really need some ideas on key words.  Big thank you!!!IMG_2290.JPGIMG_2292.JPG

Maybe Jade?? I'm not sure so wait for others to chime in..

I'd use "Hand Carved" for sure, here is a picture I found with some carved jade elephants for comparison...

You can't fix crazy but you sure can document it.

Would the term  festish   help any?

I second Sarah's suggestion, with a spelling change - Fetish. Check out NA type necklaces (not elephants, but same style necklace so might pick up a shopper that way). Consider selling separately? might get more $ that way

Didn't think they could be jade but maybe - I just know the age.  Still not sure best way to list.

Not sure of the stones used but one looks like leopard jasper.

Jadeite, with its bright emerald-green, pink, lavender, orange and brown colours. I'm probably way off on guessing what those elephants are made of. Maybe research that? Then you'd at least have a title!
