Ornamental toy/model elephant in eastern design

All the details

This is something I took in a while ago from a friend's daughter who was moving and had no room for it any more. I don't know whether it has any sort of significance but is a well decorated model of an elephant made of a wooden frame (I guess?) with fabric covering and lots of ornmamental additions in a seemingly eastern style.. You can see the size of it from the last picture. It has been in my garage for quite a while but is in n fairly good condition overall but with a bit of wear on the rear section.
