Hindustan the lucky White Elephant face pot produced by Kevin Francis Ceramics of Stoke-on-Trent, England, circa 2001. Hindustan is often used to refer to the modern-day Republic of India. Elephants, in general, are considered symbols of success and good fortune. White elephants are extremely rare and therefore even more symbolic of good fortune. White elephants are especially revered in Thailand, where they are a symbol of royal power and are more accurately referred to as "auspicious elephants." It is said that the Buddha's mother dreamt of a white elephant before she gave birth to him. Hindustan's face pot quote is "Trump. Trump. Trump" refers to the loud sound he makes.
