About the Item
19th Century Burmese Elephant Howdah Seat.
The upholstered seat cushion is newer than the wood seat.
The cushion is probably 1960-70s.
Has zipper on the back.
Recently professionally cleaned.
Hand carved.
The craftsmanship is impressive.
So many parts to this chair.
Does not sit evenly on perfectly flat floor, maybe because it's supposed to be on an elephant?
Furniture felts level it out pretty easily.
Missing one leg and part of the tines on the body. Both pictured.
Does not affect functionality.
