This is a set of 8 small carved stone elephant beads plus one small sitting carved stone monkey bead. Most of the elephants have a hole drilled through, but some of them have little carved hooks on top for hanging, and the biggest elephant would have to be hung through his trunk. The tiny sitting monkey would have to be strung through his body. I believe these are made of soapstone in various shades of tan. The biggest (fattest) elephant at the top right is almost an inch long. The rest are smaller. As you can see in the pictures, these are pretty crude and primitive.
