Caption from page 20 of Modern English Silverwork, by C. R. Ashbee: Coffee-pot with turned and stained ivory handle. The spout forms the neck and head of a peacock; the plumage of which is chased all over the front and sides of the pot. It rests on four ball feet and the lid is a dome of green enamel with a malachite stone set in the knob. This piece was designed for Mrs. Rudyard Kipling. The drawing shows it at its full size.

The elephant would be a reference to Airavat, the elephant of Indra, the king of the Hindu gods ( equivalent of the Greek deity Zeus , the elephant is seen carrying a lotus flower. It is the mount of Indra, and the Gaja ( Sanskrit word for elephant) or Gajaraj ( kingly elephant) was a respected and majestic figure associated with intelligence and wisdom and also fidelity. The deity Shivas elder son, Ganesha ( the Roman Janus is similar ) has an elephant head and is associated with writing ( he is said to have personally helped in putting the epic Mahabharata into written script while its sage-composer Vyasa was narrating it aloud ), but the elephant-image shown in the seals on Rudyard Kiplings book is not Ganesha, it is Airavat.
Many older editions of the books of Rudyard Kipling (1865–1936) have a swastika printed on the cover, associated with a picture of an elephant carrying a lotus flower, reflecting the influence of Indian culture. Kiplings use of the swastika was based on the Indian sun symbol conferring good luck and the Sanskrit word meaning fortunate or well-being. He used the swastika symbol in both right and left-facing forms, and it was in general use by others at the time. Once the swastika had become widely associated with Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, Kipling ordered that it should no longer adorn his books.
