London's Elephants - No 23 in a series
The Worshipful Company of Cutlers is one of the City's livery companies, dating back to the 13th Century, it gained it's Royal Charter in the 15th Century. The elephant on its shield probably refers to the ivory that was used for the handles of the best items. Whatever the reason, it means they have possibly the finest pair of knockers in London.

Yes indeed! A fine pair of knockers to be sure -:)
Those are very nice and what they represent (elephants) even nicer.
